    Science in Science-fiction
    • Nearly two thousand illustrated entries covering science-fiction authors, editors, critics, magazines, anthologies, comics, illustrators, films, filmmakers, and major themes are thoroughly cross-referenced.

      The Science Fiction Encyclopedia
    • When the first edition of THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SCIENCE FICTION was published in 1979, it was immediately hailed as a classic work of reference. Frank Herbert described it as 'The most valuable science fiction source book ever written.' This new edition has taken years to prepare and is much more than a simple updating. The world of science fiction in the 1990s is much more complex than it was back in the later 1970s. The advent of game worlds, shared worlds, graphic novels, film and tv spin-offs, technothrillers, survivalist fiction, sf horror novels and fantasy novels with sf centres has necessitated a radical revision. Accordingly, the book has expanded dramatically in order to cope with the complexities and changes. It now contains well over 4,300 entries - a staggering 1,500 more than the original - and at 1.2 million words, it is nearly half a million words longer than the first edition. This is the indispensable reference work not only for every reader who loves, uses and wishes to know more about science ficiton, but for every reader of imaginative fiction at the end of this century.

      The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction
    • Introduces the reader to a wealth of literary experiment, beginning in the 19th century.

      يتناول هذا الكتاب نوعية من الأفلام لم تتطرق إليها أفلام الكتاب إلا فيما نذر، زفيه يتعرف القارىء والسينمائي العربي معاً على هذه النوعية التي تتعدد جوانبها لتشمل أفلام الخيال العلمي والرعب والفانتازيا، والسيريالية. والواقع أن هناك أفلاماً أجنبية كثيرة تقع داخل نطاق هذه النوعية مما نتداوله في دور العرض أو عن طريق شريط الفيديو. والكتاب يلقى الضوء عليها ويساعد القارىء والمشاهد على فهمها. ولعل ذلك يساعد بدوره على تطعيم الأفلام الأخرى بدماء جديدة تسمح لها بالانطلاق إلى آفاق أوسع من الخيال الحر. والفيلموجرافية التي يضمها الكتاب في آخره تمثل معيناً عملياً للقارئ في توسيع معلوماته عن الأفلام التي تشملها وتضم سبعمائة فيلم.
