Heinlein : Red Planet before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Red Planet: 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. As usual, I loved every book from this period of Heinlein's writing.By Kindle CustomerAs usual, I loved every book from this period of Heinlein's writing. Right up until the time when Lazarus long be came a jack in the box popping into every book and diverting the stories into that universe. The stories were simpler the morals were lack and white without 10 chapters of justification about them. Each of these stores is about 2 or more young people that get thrown into adult situations and everything is resolved happily for everyone. Even the bad guys as a group come out ahead, except for the chief vilIain(s). This type of book was a very good paced read without a lot of tedious technology explanations that crept into some of the juveniles. I recommend this book to anyone from 8 to 80 that'lld a Happy ending.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Red Planet - The Old vs The Original or New Version!By Paula L. MangoldThe 1949 version of Red Planet was read to me in 5th grade! That book inspired a love of reading in me. I just finished reading both versions of the book, back to back! The 1949 version still captured my imagination as it did in 5th grade, but the book Red Planet as Robert A. Heinlein conceived it brings so much clarification and depth of understanding to the reader that the first published version does not have. It is the superior version and I would recommend it especially to younger readers beginning their lifetime of reading! Still, I purchased a used hardback of the 1949 version to inspire my great-grandchildren on their reading journey, when they get old enough to read it themselves. The Original or New version purchased in Kindle will go to whoever inherits my iPad! Happy Reading!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. and was not disappointed by trying it againBy Mr. Roger H. GeyerAs an adult sci-fi fan, one of the really refreshing things about Heinlein is that his Juveniles books are plenty enjoyable for adults as well as teens. I remember reading this book over 40 years ago and liking it, and was not disappointed by trying it again. This picks up on some of Heinlein's lighter philosophy where he takes humanity to task for basically being jerks (warlike and materialistic and often uncaring or even cruel), but keeps a well paced interesting story line going. And Willis, the pet (whose nature I won't disclose) -- what a great concept for a pet! What kid or adult wouldn't rather have a Willis -- as little trouble as a goldfish, but having the best attributes of both dogs and cats, plus much more. Well worth a read for a light science fiction romp. Jim Marlowe and his strange-looking Martian friend, Willis, are allowed to travel only so far. But one day Willis unwittingly tunes in to a treacherous plot that threatens all the colonists on Mars, and it sets Jim off on a terrifying adventure that could save - or destroy - them all.

Librarian As Fair Witness: a Comparison of Heinlein's Futuristic
LIBRES Library and Information Science Research Electronic Journal Volume 21, Issue 1, March 2011 Librarian as Fair Witness: A Comparison of Heinlein’s Futuristic Occupation and Today’s Evolving Information Professional Julie M. Still Paul Robeson Library Rutgers University Camden, NJ [email protected] There has been a continuing discussion in library literature on the library as place and on the image of librarians in popular media, but there is little information on the librarian as person. The discussion on librarianship as a profession tends to focus on technology and not so much the people, other than the people skills needed in reference or teaching skills needed for instruction. The worth of the individual librarian tends to get lost in the shuffle. Before we disappear into the machine, it is useful to look at other future scenarios and similar occupations, either reality based or fiction. In this particular case, it is interesting to compare librarians to those in an occupation created by a renowned science fiction author. Robert Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land, his most famous and most controversial novel, is a science fiction classic. The science fiction community recognized it with a Hugo Award, and the book was the first science fiction title to be on the New York Times bestseller list (Stover, 1987, p. 45). Heinlein outlined the novel in 1949 and finished the first draft in 1955 but on the advice of his wife set it aside. It was not published until 1961. The manuscript was edited heavily and an uncut version was published in 1991.

From Earthlings to Martians: Season 2 of National Geographic's MARS
From Earthlings to Martians: Season 2 of National Geographic’s MARS portrays what life could really be like once we settle on the Red Planet The Acclaimed Hybrid Series, Executive Produced by Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, Returns 15th November, with Veteran Showrunner Dee Johnson at the Helm. Expert ‘Big Thinkers’ Including Elon Musk, Bill Nye, Ellen Stofan, Michio Kaku, Andy Weir, Leland Melvin and Stephen Petranek Weigh in on the Conflicts Between Science and Industry As Humans Terraform This Brave New World. HONG KONG, NOVEMBER 1, 2018 – The prospect of Mars has never been more palpable. The idea once was considered science fiction, but in the blink of an eye, we’ll be there. Season 2 of National Geographic’s acclaimed series MARS – dubbed impressive, inspiring and scientifically honest by critics - returns 15th November at 9pm HTK, with a six-episode arc continuing with last season’s unique hybrid format: alternating scripted and documentary sequences to predict what life will be like on the Red Planet forecasted by what’s happening today on Earth. National Geographic partners again with Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, Michael Rosenberg and Justin Wilkes of Imagine Entertainment, as well as executive producers Jon Kamen and Tommy Turtle of RadicalMedia to envision what might happen when Earthlings become the planet’s first Martians. This season on MARS, the story delves into the boundaries between science and industry on an isolated, unforgiving frontier. Throughout history, there’s been a constant tug of war between human motivations and interests with profitability on one end of the spectrum and exploration on the other.

The American Alien: Immigrants, Expatriates and Extraterrestrials in Twentieth-Century U.S
The American Alien: Immigrants, Expatriates and Extraterrestrials in Twentieth-Century U.S. Fiction A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Ph.D. in English By JOSEPH B. SCOTT Andrew Hoberek, Dissertation Supervisor MAY 2012 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the dissertation entitled The American Alien: Immigrants, Expatriates and Extraterrestrials in Twentieth-Century U.S. Fiction Presented by Joseph B. Scott a candidate for the degree of doctor of philosophy, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor Andrew Hoberek Professor Karen Piper Professor Noah Heringman Professor Kristin Kopp ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to take this opportunity to thank Andrew Hoberek, Karen Piper, Noah Heringman and Kristin Kopp for their careful responses to the current work, their insightful suggestions, and their generosity with their time. This dissertation has been shaped, extended, trimmed, and otherwise improved by their suggestions. In particular, Dr. Hoberek has been a part of the project from its inception, and his erudition, as well as his skill at identifying the best way to expand upon and make explicit the implicit connections between this work’s far-flung texts, has been invaluable. Karen Piper read an early version of this project as a seminar paper for her seminar in postcolonial theory, so it benefitted from her comments even in its first stage. Noah Heringman’s expertise in conceptions of the environment, as well as Kristin Kopp’s in the history of colonialism, have also been extremely helpful.

Science Fiction Book Club Interview with Author David Gerrold
Science Fiction Book Club Interview with Author David Gerrold- April 2018 David Gerrold is the writer of the legendary Star Trek episode "The Trouble With Tribbles," and he was also involved in the early days of Star Trek the Next Generation (TNG). He created the Sleestak race on the TV series Land of the Lost, his novelette "The Martian Child", won both Hugo and Nebula awards. And he is the writer of "The War Against the Chtorr" series and "Star Wolf" series and such novels as "The Man Who Folded Himself," which was nominated for both the Hugo and Nebula. John Grayshaw- What Science fiction stories do you remember reading when you were growing up? Aside from a couple of children’s books, the first real SF books I read were the Heinlein juveniles, Red Planet, Space Cadet, Between Planets — they felt so real that I wondered if Heinlein had actually lived those adventures. The library turned me on to Eric Frank Russell, Isaac Asimov, Murray Leinster, A.E. Van Vogt, Hal Clement, Henry Kuttner, Fred Pohl, Cyril Kornbluth, and so many others. The Groff Conklin anthologies introduced me to the classic SF that had been published in the magazines. Individual stories that still resonate with me include Microcosmic God (Theodore Sturgeon), The Black Destroyer (A.E. Van Vogt), all of the stories about “The People” (Zenna Henderson), and of course, All You Zombies by Heinlein. John Grayshaw- What science fiction stories have most influenced your writing? All of them, probably. A lot of Heinlein. A lot of Ellison. A lot of Delany.

Works by Robert A. Heinlein

In Robert Heinlein's Juvenile Science Fiction CW Sulli
143 A Note on Race, Ethnicity, Gender, and Home Planet: The “Other” in Robert Heinlein’s Juvenile Science Fiction C. W. Sullivan III ABSTRACT This essay examines Heinlein's Young Adult (YA) stories—commonly referred to as his “juveniles”—and argues that Heinlein's "Others" are not defined by race, gender, or planet of origin but by their inability to understand and deal with the changes that inter-planetary travel will bring. (CWS) KEYWORDS: ethnicity, gender, home planet, race, Robert A. Heinlein, the “Other” Robert A. Heinlein’s science-fiction short stories and novels have elicited more than their share of knee-jerk criticism from critics who either fail to read the works carefully or are unable to separate the author from the characters in the novel. Those who call Heinlein a fascist for Starship Troopers, such as M. Keith Booker, Ann-Marie Thomas, and Jeffrey Cass, or a promoter of free love and drugs for Stranger in a Strange Land, such as New York Times reviewer, Orville Prescott are certainly guilty of confusing the author with the novel.1 Could the same man have written both? Heinlein has suffered even worse misreading at the hands of most of those who comment on his portrayal of women in his novels, especially in the juveniles. However, race, ethnicity, and planet of origin in Heinlein’s juveniles have escaped critical notice. 144 Heinlein published the 12 juveniles, from Rocket Ship Galileo to Have Space Suit— Will Travel, between 1947 and 1958. Starship Troopers, rejected for the juvenile series by Scribner’s, was published in 1959 and won science fiction’s Hugo Award that year.

Creative Commons License Yellow Perils of Robert Heinlein 1 Yellow Perils of Robert Heinlein John Hickman 1. Introduction 1 Perhaps more than any other science fiction writer of the mid to late 20th century, Robert Heinlein has been praised and criticized for the political messages in his published fiction (Westfahl; Stover 49). Commentators have lauded Heinlein as a patriot in the National Review (Wooster); lauded him as a feminist in The New York Times (Lord); denounced him for ideological inconsistency in The New Republic (Heer); denounced him as sexist and racist in The Spectator (Priest); and denounced as a “right-winger, a libertarian nudist with a military-hardware fetish, a cold warrior” in The Los Angeles Times (Timberg). Contemporary science fiction writers continue to be artistically and politically inspired by Heinlein; with work reflecting his right libertarian or “conservatrian” (Hill) politics recognized in the Prometheus Award (Walton). Author Neal Stephenson, for example, was asked twice about the influence of Heinlein in a recent interview in the libertarian magazine Reason (Cowen 61, 64).
