This is may be my favorite SF book of all time. I keep a few copies handy to lend out because it starts out with a concept we've all pondered (What if we didn't need to sleep?I'd get soooo much done. Maybe.) then goes with it in a spider-diagram skitter that slips in and out of life & human philosophy so easily that you sometimes don't even realize it's happening.
The rest of the series is ok. Not as well written, not as philosophical. This is the only one you need to read, really.
