Lab Lit: Exploring Literary and Cultural Representations of Science
is the first formal, systematic, scholarly investigation of
laboratory literature from the perspective of literary studies. Lab
Lit as a new genre has received a lot of public and media attention
due to its compelling presentation of science practitioners and the
relatable explanations of the scientific advancements that have
shaped modern society and will continue to do so. However, the
genre has been largely overlooked by scholars. This book is an
introduction to the world of science for those who up till now have
been immersed primarily in the world of literature. The anthology
contains essays that discuss Lab Lit novels using a variety of
analytical approaches. It also features theoretical essays that
explore the social and literary backgrounds of Lab Lit and help the
reader position the critical pieces within appropriate contexts.
