Brin's best known novel is "The Postman" which Kevin Costner managed to make into a mediocre movie. Brin also wrote a nice series called "Uplift" which has some intriguing themes in it.

Author of "The Postman", a decent novel but one of the worst movie adaptations of all time. For my money, his best work is "Heart of the Comet", a collaboration with Gregory Benford.
