Another recommendation for this book - I am pretty sure its my favorite fiction novel and I have read it many times. So many interesting and thought provoking parts.

I feel that rereading a book is the height of praise. So you've hooked me I'm going to pick up Diaspora.

Returning the favor I've reread "A Fire Upon the Deep" a few times now. Vernor Vinge scifi author who taught comp sci and mathematics at university.

I like Vinge very much, but Egan is really in another level.

I have read Diaspora three times and I can't decide if I like it more than my favorite other book by him: Permutation City.
