As Chrys is searching for the weapon, Huntley must convince Hephaestus to create a new lock for Tartarus.

“Deftly shows how a seemingly frivolous film genre can guide us in shaping tomorrow’s world.” —Seth Shostak, senior astronomer, SETI Institute Artificial intelligence, gene manipulation, cloning, and interplanetary travel are all ideas that seemed like fairy tales but a few years ago. And now their possibilities are very much here. But are we ready to handle these advances? This book, by a physicist and expert on responsible technology development, reveals how science fiction movies can help us think about and prepare for the social consequences of technologies we don’t yet have, but that are coming faster than we imagine. Films from the Future looks at twelve movies that take us on a journey through the worlds of biological and genetic manipulation, human enhancement, cyber technologies, and nanotechnology. Readers will gain a broader understanding of the complex relationship between science and society. The movies mix old and new, and the familiar and unfamiliar, to provide a unique, entertaining, and ultimately transformative take on the power of emerging technologies, and the responsibilities they come with.

This volume presents the first collection of essays dedicated to the science fiction of microbiologist Joan Slonczewski.

Her novels treat feminism in relation to scientific practice, resistance to domination, pacifism versus militarism, the extension of human rights to nonhuman and posthuman actors, biopolitics and posthuman ethics, and symbiosis and communication across planetary scales. Posthuman Biopolitics explores the breadth and depth of Joan Slonczewski’s vision, uncovering the reflective ethical practice that informs her science fiction.

He haunts my dreams every night, but I don't even know his name?I don't have any memories before I was twelve, can't remember anything about who I was or where I'm from.As a kid I thought I had wings and could fly, and I believed it so much I jumped off a building and nearly died.There's a scar over my heart, like something was torn out of me, and every night, I dream about him. Coal-black hair and eyes that match. Sometimes he has wings, but they aren't like the blue-feathered ones I thought I had, but black and leathery. Sometimes in my dreams he isn't a man at all, but a dragon like one from legend.I've drawn his face a thousand times, but I never thought he was real. Then he shows up one day and his name slams into me: Benedict. And when he acts like we're old friends, talking about taking me back to some place called Elysium...I know I've either finally lost it, or that childhood I can't remember is a lot stranger than I ever could have predicted.But if there's any chance those wings I thought I had are real, I'll do anything to get them back. And no matter how much logic might tell me it makes no sense, my heart tells me I'll follow Benedict anywhere. That I always have.

Black Internationalist Feminism written by Cheryl Higashida and has been published by University of Illinois Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011-12-01 with Social Science categories.

Black Internationalist Feminism examines how African American women writers affiliated themselves with the post-World War II Black Communist Left and developed a distinct strand of feminism. This vital yet largely overlooked feminist tradition built upon and critically retheorized the postwar Left's "nationalist internationalism," which connected the liberation of Blacks in the United States to the liberation of Third World nations and the worldwide proletariat. Black internationalist feminism critiques racist, heteronormative, and masculinist articulations of nationalism while maintaining the importance of national liberation movements for achieving Black women's social, political, and economic rights. Cheryl Higashida shows how Claudia Jones, Lorraine Hansberry, Alice Childress, Rosa Guy, Audre Lorde, and Maya Angelou worked within and against established literary forms to demonstrate that nationalist internationalism was linked to struggles against heterosexism and patriarchy. Exploring a diverse range of plays, novels, essays, poetry, and reportage, Higashida illustrates how literature is a crucial lens for studying Black internationalist feminism because these authors were at the forefront of bringing the perspectives and problems of black women to light against their marginalization and silencing. In examining writing by Black Left women from 1945–1995, Black Internationalist Feminism contributes to recent efforts to rehistoricize the Old Left, Civil Rights, Black Power, and second-wave Black women's movements.
