Gathered here for the first time are Miles J. Breuer's first
publication, "The Man with the Strange Head"; his neglected
dystopian novel Paradise and Iron (appearing here in book form for
the first time); stories such as "Gostak and the Doshes" and
"Mechanocracy"; and Breuer's essay "The Future of Scientifiction,"
one of the early critical statements of the genre. Also included
are some of the author's letters from the Discussions column of
Amazing Stories. Much of what we know as science fiction saw the
light-and found its themes, styles, and modes-in the science
fiction magazines of the early twentieth century. It was in these
magazines of the 1920s and 1930s that Breuer often led the way.
Breuer himself found his inspiration in the work of H. G. Wells and
in turn influenced science fiction masters from Jack Williamson to
Robert A. Heinlein. The Man with the Strange Head and Other Early
Science Fiction Stories collects the best work of this pioneer of
the genre.
