Reviews
"Given that nothing is poised to help us explore the pressing political and philosophical issues of our day like science fiction, Science Fiction and Political Philosophy is a much-needed book. It covers nearly everything you want it to cover-dating back to the origins of science fiction (like Bacon's New Atlantis and Shelly's Frankenstein) to modern fan favorites of film and television (like Star Trek TNG and Black Mirror)-and treats science fiction with the philosophical respect it deserves. I hope and believe it will inspire similar works." -- David Kyle Johnson, King's College, author of Sci-Phi: Science Fiction as Philosophy
Science Fiction and Political Philosophy is highly recommended reading for those interesting in science fiction, philosophy, and just over all assessing the questions and problems we as a human race, could or will face at some point, as these are serious matters to which we as a species must consider.
