Twentieth-Century Science Fiction Writers (ST JAMES GUIDE TO SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS)

In 1818, the publication of Frankenstein marked the birth of the science fiction genre. Today, this genre continues to thrive as more and more authors follow in the foot-steps of Mary Shelley's ground-breaking work.

This fully revised 4th edition presents more than 600 of the world's most prominent science fiction authors. From traditional favorites such as H.G. Wells, Robert Heinlein and J.G. Ballard to those who have changed both the style and concerns of the genre like Michael Moorcock, Ursula Le Guin and Doris Lessing, this unique reference provides unparalleled analysis of science fiction's most notable authors.
