وصف الكتاب | Thousands of memorable quotations from the best science fiction works of all time in this unprecedented collection of science fiction and fantasy quotations, the reader revisits the stunning moment when mary shelley's frankenstein monster first comes to life; witnesses the transformation of robert louis stevenson's dr. Jekyll into mr. Hyde; is present when bruce wayne resolves to become batman; and overhears the cosmic conclusions of the incredible shrinking man. Drawing upon two centuries of the vast and provocative literature of science fiction and fantasy, this comprehensive book presents more than 2,900 quotations from wide-ranging sources, including science fiction and fantasy stories, novels, films, and television programs. The quotations are organized by topic-alien worlds; darkness and light; robots, androids, and cyborgs; machines and technology; weapons; and more than one hundred others.

Le guin) along with definitive versions of such important statements as isaac asimov's three laws of robotics and star trek's prime directive. With its thorough index, this book is both an invaluable resource for the writer or scholar and an irresistible page-turner for the curious browser |
