John Tierney (of the 'TierneyLab' blog and 'Findings' column in the NYT) has penned a brief biography and thinkpiece of Stewart Brand, noting the resurgence of interest in Brand's work of the past 4 decades - particularly Turner's From Counterculture to Cyberculture and a pending book by Andy Kirk focusing on Brand's environmentalist thinking and impact. This provides an Tierney an opportunity to bring up Brand's rethinking of various issues - nuclear power, scarcity, etc.

A good read for the archives, and a nice introduction.
