Representations of Technology in Science Fiction for Young People - Children's Literature and Culture 1st edition
Applebaum, Noga (Roehampton University, UK)
The book explores representations of modern technology in contemporary science fiction for young people. It exposes the anti-technological bias existing within a genre usually associated with celebrating technology, and suggests that this bias is a form of resistance to the changing face of childhood and technology’s contribution to this change.
