Linda Nagata, author of _TECH HEAVEN_, has a nice website (which
includes the 1st chapter of that novel).
http://www.maui.net/~nagata/index.html

Here are a couple of excerpts from her website profile describing TECH
HEAVEN:

>>
 It's about politics and culture as much as technology, with all of
these speculations clustering around a central plot that explores the
potential -- no, the gamble -- of cryonics. 

>>
Another excerpt:

>>
Cryonics: there's an example of hubris. There's an example of what
we're not supposed to do because it'll mess up the system (natural/ 
philosophical/ religious/ cultural...you name it). Of course, the 
protagonists of TECH-HEAVEN don't allow themselves to be swayed by
such objections. They are profoundly devoted to protecting the
practice of cryonics, and to protecting the privilege of free choice
in a changing 
world. 
>>

End of excerpt.

Comment: I haven't yet read the book, but this is a very
friendly-sounding approach to cryonics.
