From the novel Neuromancer, published in 1984
The term cyberspace (an amalgam of cybernetics and space) first appeared in William Gibson’s masterpiece. The author described a phenomenon called “consensual hallucination” created by millions of computers across the planet connected by the PAX network. Five years later, Britain’s Tim Berners-Lee gave us the World Wide Web.
