Beginning in 1926, with the publication of the first issue of Amazing Stories, Justine Larbalestier examines science fiction's engagement with questions of femininity, masculinity, sex and sexuality. She traces the debates over the place of women and feminism in science fiction as it emerged in stories, letters and articles in science fiction magazines and fanzines. The book culminates in the story of James Tiptree, Jr. and the eponymous Award. Tiptree was a successful science fiction writer of the 1970s who was later discovered to be a woman. Tiptree's easy acceptance by the male-dominated publishing arena of the time proved that there was no necessary difference in the way men and women wrote, but that there was a real difference in the way they were read. 716060 book 20 6 2002 The Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction total:13|5:3|4:7|3:3| 13 52 53 7 729861 081956527X 9780819565273 13 7 4.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177737823m/729861.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/729861.The_Battle_of_the_Sexes_in_Science_Fiction 4 0 false Sat Jul 22 00:00:00 -0700 2006 Mon Jan 05 14:19:38 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 05 14:20:22 -0800 2009 more...]]> 729861 081956527X 9780819565273 13 7 4.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177737823m/729861.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/729861.The_Battle_of_the_Sexes_in_Science_Fiction 4 0 false Fri May 30 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu May 15 22:50:26 -0700 2008 Fri May 30 18:26:01 -0700 2008 Great if you're in the mood for a dry, academic analysis of long-forgotten debates from the letters columns of old pulp sci-fi magazines.
