This is the first volume to cover science fiction right up to the present day and includes a substantial last chapter on the rejuvenation of science fiction in the 1990s.
Written specifically for students and non-specialists, in an accessible style throughout.
Has an extraordinarily broad and comprehensive coverage, giving equal weight to both American and English SF, whereas other studies have been weighted to one or to the other.
Employs an interdisciplinary approach, mixing literature with the history of science, political and economic history and cultural theory. There is a real thirst for such material amongst students and lecturers in this area.
Science Fiction is not only a popular undergraduate course, but fans of SF are renowned for buying this type of study too.
