Dodd. . 330 $aThis volume presents the first collection of essays dedicated to the science fiction of microbiologist Joan Slonczewski. Posthuman Biopolitics consolidates the scholarly literature on Slonczewski?s fiction and demonstrates fruitful lines of engagement for the critical, cultural, and theoretical treatment of her characters, plots, and storyworlds. Her novels treat feminism in relation to scientific practice, resistance to domination, pacifism versus militarism, the extension of human rights to nonhuman and posthuman actors, biopolitics and posthuman ethics, and symbiosis and communication across planetary scales. Posthuman Biopolitics explores the breadth and depth of Joan Slonczewski?s vision, uncovering the reflective ethical practice that informs her science fiction. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Science and Popular Culture 606 $aLiterature, Modern?20th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern?21st century 606 $aFiction 606 $aAmerica?Literatures 606 $aTechnology in literature 606 $aBioethics 606 $aFilm genres 606 $aContemporary Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/815000 606 $aFiction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/825000 606 $aNorth American Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/834000 606 $aLiterature and Technology/Media$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/827000 606 $aBioethics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14010 606 $aGenre$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413110 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?20th century. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern?21st century. 615 0$aFiction. 615 0$aAmerica?Literatures. 615 0$aTechnology in literature. 615 0$aBioethics. 615 0$aFilm genres. 615 14$aContemporary Literature. 615 24$aFiction. 615 24$aNorth American Literature. 615 24$aLiterature and Technology/Media. 615 24$aBioethics. 615 24$aGenre. 676 $a822.33 702 $aClarke$b Bruce$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483259003321 996 $aPosthuman Biopolitics$92083296 997 $aUNINA
