Reviews
Mixing discussions of science fiction and science in fiction (also known as "lab lit"), the anthology provides thoughtful analyses of print and visual texts that reference scientific ideas and practices. Lab Lit's accessible prose makes it an ideal source for students interested in considering the roles sciences play in a range of literary works from Frankenstein to Flight Behavior and in appreciating critical approaches to the scientific imaginary. Both students and scholars can also benefit from the useful bibliographies provided with the essays. -- Carol Colatrella, Georgia Institute of Technology
