Science Fiction and Psychology

Science Fiction and Psychology explores science fiction literature's varied use of psychological discourses from the late nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth. The readings explore the varied employment in science fiction of ideas from five key psychological schools - evolutionary psychology, psychoanalysis, behaviourism, existential-humanism, and cognitivism - and conclude by examining psychology's use of science fiction.
