paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. This collection showcases the speculative writing of Scottish-born and California-based writer Robert Duncan Milne (1844-99) whose works mark him as one of the forgotten pioneers of early science fiction. Hailed as the first full-time science fiction writer in America, this critical edition draws together the most expansive collection of his writing ever published and places his life, works and themes into their historical, literary and scientific contexts. With his writing touching on nearly every subset of the genre, including climate catastrophe, utopia, cryogenics, molecular re-engineering of the body, personality transfer, drone warfare, remote surveillance, and satellite phones, this book offers an overdue correction to the science fiction canon. Grouped thematically and with volume and story introductions that connect Milne's work to his peers and science fiction scholarship, this is the essential guide to a crucially overlooked writer. Astonishingly prescient and fulfilling the missing link in science fiction literary history that bridges the gap between the likes of Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, Milne makes clear the often-obscured contribution of both Scotland and California in the development of the science fiction genre. …
