Dime novels, pulp magazines, books, films, television-science
fiction has chronicled both our hope for the future and our fear of it.
Bestselling author Frank M. Robinson tells the story-behind-the-story,
from Mary Shelleys' Frankenstein, published in the 1800s, through the
fantastic visions of Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, Robert Heinlein,
Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and a host of others who made science
fiction not only their profession but their life. The atomic bomb, the
space programs, cloning, and the Internet come to life on paper and
celluloid as talented writers, artists, and filmmakers share their
sense of wonder and their adventures of the mind. This book is a graphically illustration of the many posters and artwork of many talented individuals who created these masterpieces which helped fuel our interest in things only imagined in Science Fiction. A fantasic illustrated tour through this history.
