{"product_id":"uninhabited-ben-woodard-9781803414485","title":"Uninhabited: Science Fiction and the Decolonial","description":"Is it inhabited? This question makes the shared stakes of science fiction and colonialism obvious, wherein the wide imaginaries of empire and what counts as life - scientifically, ethically, politically - and the moral and technological possibilities of terraforming and the impulse for exploration are all fused. Science fiction, and the genres that preceded and grounded it, such as scientific romance and tales of lost civilizations, emerged alongside the birth of industrialized global trade and imperial rushes for new resources. If the scientific romance dramatized the effects of new technologies on history and forms of life, then lost civilization stories dealt with themes of the alien, the forgetting of history, and more explicitly, with episodes of war and oppression.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Woodard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1803414480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781803414485\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zero Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ben Woodard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46867243499775,"sku":"9781803414485","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_77d93b91-f324-4240-8cd0-1696367864c3.jpg?v=1747454267","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/uninhabited-ben-woodard-9781803414485","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
