Description

This book, first published in 1979, presents a portrait of science fiction as a distinct form of serious and creative literature.

Contributors are drawn from Britain, America and Europe, and range from well-known academic critics to young novelists.

The essays establish the common properties of science fiction writing, and assess the history and significance of a field in which critical judgements have often been unreliable.

The material ranges from the earliest imaginative journeys to the moon, to later developments of British, American and European science fiction.
