From Frankenstein to futuristic feminist utopias, Decoding Gender in Science Fiction examines the ways science fiction writers have incorporated, explored, and revised conventional notions of sexual difference. Attebery traces a fascinating history of men's and women's writing that covertly or overtly investigates conceptions of gender, suggesting new perspectives on the genre.

Brian Attebery is Professor of English and Director of American Studies at Idaho State University. He is author of Strategies of Fantasy and The Fantasy Tradition in American Literature, and co-editor, with Ursula K. Le Guin, of The Norton Book of Science Fiction.
