From Lord of the
Rings—called the greatest novel of the 20th Century—to The
Matrix—one of the highest grossing films of all time, from the
phenomenon of Star Wars to the legacy of Star Trek,
from the writings of H.G. Wells to the cinema of George Lucas,
science fiction and fantasy have proved to be one of cinema and
literature’s most enduring and popular genres. PROJECTIONS examines
the history and the people, the science and the society, the lives,
times and themes, the cultural impact and the critical response of
the dynamic genre that is speculative fiction, as seen through the
eyes of some of today’s most recognized writers. Including both
original and reprinted material, PROJECTIONS is a must for every
serious science fiction student and enthusiast.
