Book Presentation:
Liquid Metal brings together 'seminal' essays that have opened up the study of science fiction to serious critical interrogation. Eight distinct sections cover such topics as the cyborg in science fiction; the science fiction city; time travel and the primal scene; science fiction fandom; and the 1950s invasion narratives. Important writings by Susan Sontag, Vivian Sobchack, Steve Neale, J.P. Telotte, Peter Biskind and Constance Penley are included.

About the Author:
Sean Redmond is lecturer in Film Studies at the Southampton Institute, UK, and co-editor of The Cinema of Kathryn Bigelow: Hollywood Transgressor, also published by Wallflower Press.
