Kim Stanley Robinson (Paperback)

Award-winning epics like the Mars Trilogy and groundbreaking
alternative histories like The Days of Rice and Salt have brought
Kim Stanley Robinson to the forefront of contemporary science
fiction. Mixing subject matter from a dizzying number of fields
with his own complex ecological and philosophical concerns,
Robinson explores how humanity might pursue utopian social action
as a strategy for its own survival. Robert Markley examines the
works of an author engaged with the fundamental question of how
we-as individuals, as a civilization, and as a species-might go
forward. By building stories on huge time scales, Robinson lays out
the scientific and human processes that fuel humanity's struggle
toward a more just and environmentally stable world or system of
worlds. His works invite readers to contemplate how to achieve, and
live in, these numerous possible futures. They also challenge us to
see that SF's literary, cultural, and philosophical significance
have made it the preeminent literary genre for examining where we
stand today in human and planetary history.
