New Light Through Old Windows: Exploring Contemporary Science Through 12 Classic Science Fiction Tales

This book presents the reader with some of the earliest classic SF short stories - all of them published between 1858 and 1934, featuring both well-known and long-forgotten writers - dealing for the first time with topics to which science had (some) answers only at much later stages.
