Description
Science Fiction: A Comprehensive Introduction to Modern Culture This second edition of Science Fiction provides a fascinating and comprehensive introduction to one of the most popular areas of modern culture. With an entirely new conclusion and all other chapters fully reworked and updated, it reflects how the field is rapidly changing in both its practice and its critical reception. The book explores key concepts in Science Fiction criticism and theory through case studies drawn from short story, book, or film. It examines the interactions between Science Fiction and Science Fact, introducing readers to nineteenth-century, Pulp, Golden Age, New Wave, Feminist, and Cyberpunk science fictions.
