Science Fiction in the Real World PDF
By:Norman Spinrad
Published on 1990 by SIU Press


No ordinary critic, Norman Spinrad explicates, celebrates, and sometimes excoriates science fiction from the privileged perspective of an artist armed with intimate knowledge of the craft of fiction and even of the writers themselves. In these 13 essays, Spinrad urges science fiction as a genre to reach its potential. He divides the essays—new works written specifically for this book combined with those that appeared in Isaac Asimov’s Science Fiction Magazine—into five sections: |Literature and Genre: A Critical Overview,| in which Spinrad establishes his critical standards; |Alternate Media: Visual Translations,| a discussion of comic books and books made into movies; |Modes of Content: Hard SF, Cyberpunk, and the Space Visionaries|; |Psychopolitics and Science Fiction: Heroes—True and Otherwise|; and |Masters of the Form: Careers in Profile,| discussions of Sturgeon, Vonnegut, Ballard, and Dick.

The Girls in the Picture PDF By:Melanie Benjamin Published on 2018-01-16 by Delacorte Press From the New York Times bestselling author of The Swans of Fifth Avenue and The Aviator’s Wife, a fascinating novel of the friendship and creative partnership between two of Hollywood’s earliest female legends—screenwriter Frances Marion and superstar Mary Pickford It is 1914, and twenty-five-year-old Frances Marion has left her (second) husband and her Northern California home for the lure of Los Angeles, where she is determined to live independently as an artist.

The Gabriel Method PDF By:Jon Gabriel Published on 2008-12-30 by Simon and Schuster The pile of recent dieting books is growing faster than the average American's waistline. From the well-known programs that deprive and restrict to ones that rely on juice alone, it seems that everybody has an answer to the growing problem of obesity. When Jon Gabriel's life took an unexpected turn, he suddenly was awakened to the marvelous gift that he had been given -- the opportunity to live -- and was disgusted at how he had treated his body. At over four hundred pounds, walking, sleeping, and working was a struggle against gravity, and his life was a constant battle between emotional and physical satiation. He was slowly killing himself with food. Like the estimated 58 percent of Americans, and rising numbers in other countries, Jon was trapped in what he came to call the FAT - Famine and Temperature - trap. By studying biochemistry, Gabriel learned that your body has an internal logic that...
