This book represents an extremely useful pedagogical tool
that will find a home in both research libraries and undergraduate
classrooms.
Phillip Wegner, University of Florida
Few literary genres can expand the boundaries of our imagination as much as
science fiction. The Science Fiction Handbook offers a comprehensive historical
survey of literary works of science
fiction
and its most popular
subgenres.
Beginning with a broad overview of science fiction s emergence as a literary
genre, the Handbook goes on to provide detailed historical surveys of its distinct
subgenres,
whose development often parallel society s technological advances.
These include works of time-travel and alternative history narratives; alien invasion
narratives; space exploration and space opera; post-apocalyptic and post-disaster
narratives; works of Utopian and dystopian science fiction; feminism and gender
themes in science
fiction;
science fiction and satire; cyberpunk and post-human
science fiction; and multicultural science fiction. The authors also offer brief
biographies of nineteen noted science fiction writers along with extended critical
analyses of twenty of the genre s most significant works.
