520    "Bending and stretching its conventions to imagine new, 
       more feminist futures and new ways of experiencing gender,
       visionary women writers have been from the beginning an 
       essential if often overlooked force in American science 
       fiction. Two hundred years after Mary Shelley's 
       Frankenstein, SF-expert Lisa Yaszek presents the best of 
       this female tradition, from the pioneers of the Pulp Era 
       to the radical innovators of the 1960s New Wave, in a 
       landmark anthology that upends the common notion that SF 
       was conceived by and for men. Here are 25 mind-blowing SF 
       classics that still shock and inspire: Judith Merril and 
       Wilmar H. Shiras's startling near-future stories of the 
       children of the new atomic age; Carol Emshwiller and Sonya
       Dorman's haunting explorations of alien otherness; 
       dystopian fables of consumerism and overpopulation by 
       Elizabeth Mann Borgese and Alice Glaser; evocations of 
       cosmic horror from Margaret St. Clair and Andrew North 
       (Andre Norton); and much more. Other writers here take on 
       some of SF's sexist clichés and boldly rethink sex and 
       gender from the ground up. C. L. Moore and Leslie Perri 
       introduce courageous, unforgettable "sheroes"; Alice 
       Eleanor Jones sounds a housewife's note of protest against
       the conformities of life in a postapocalyptic suburb; 
       Leslie F. Stone envisions an interplanetary battle of the 
       sexes, in which the matriarchs of Venus ward off 
       unprovoked attacks by barbaric spacemen from Earth; John 
       Jay Wells and Marion Zimmer Bradley wonder how future 
       military men will feel about their pregnancies. The Future
       Is Female! is a star-spanning, soul-stirring, 
       multidimensional voyage of literary-feminist exploration 
       and recovery that will permanently alter your perceptions 
       of American SF."--Publisher's website.
