It argues that the academic field of animal studies and the popular genre of science fiction share a number a critical concerns: thinking about otherness and the nature of human being; desiring communication across species difference; and interrogating the social and ethical consequences of changes in science and technology. We are living in a complex set of contradictory and conflicting relations with non-human animals. This book maps this complex terrain, arguing that we are better able to perceive options for a transformed politics if we perceive our various material relations with non-human animals within a deeper understanding of the functions of the category ‘animal’.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 239mmItem Length: 163mmAuthor: Sherryl VintGenre: Literary CriticismBook Series: Liverpool Science Fiction Texts & StudiesISBN-10: 1846312345Type: Communication StudiesRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
