Transmission is a novel written by British-Indian author Hari Kunzru and published in 2005. It primarily follows the narrative of a naive Indian programmer, Arjun Mehta, who immigrates to the United States in hopes of making his fortune. When he is laid off by his virus-testing company, he sends out e-mails containing a malignant computer virus in a bid to keep his job, unintentionally causing global havoc. Parallel to Arjun's story is that of Guy Swift, the seemingly well-to-do English CEO of an advertising company, and his struggle to keep his business going as the virus spreads.
Transmission was a New York Times Notable Book of the Year in 2005.
