It's essential for those who wish to run their mouths about how women have/haven't been accepted in the genre, and how women are/aren't accepted today. For the full review, just click here: http://calico-reaction.livejournal.com/40496.html Justine Larbalestier’s Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction is an invaluable survey of community creation and response to male/female interaction within the SF genre between 1926 and 1973. This interaction engages characters within science fictions, but also takes shape between science fiction creators and fans, and, in the memorable case of James Tiptree, Jr., between writer and personae. Apart from Larbalestier’s thoughtful analysis of battle-of-the-sexes engagements in the SF community—carefully documented and discussed—this book is also extremely useful for its comprehensive list of works by women in the early days of SF. In addition, her final two chapters, about Tiptree and the Tiptree Award, respectively, are interesting considerations of future directions which SF may take. I found this book invigorating, and my reading list has suddenly grown enormously. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
