摘要

"Science Fiction has proved notoriously difficult to define, but has emerged as one of the most popular genres of our time; not only in literature, but also in drama, poetry, and film. David Seed explores this often unconventional genre in relation to themes such as science and technology, space, aliens, utopias, gender, and its relation to time past, present, and future."--Jacket.
