The best 1000 science-fiction & horror authors on LSD locked in a room with 1000 typewriters for 1000 years?

The best 1,000 science-fiction & horror authors on LSD locked in a room with 1,000 typewriters for 1,000 years would never come up with a premise so bizarre, outlandish and implausible as capitalism.

I agree. A system which is designed to exploit the many, for the profit of the few, then chokes to death on the stench of its own corruption, is about as bizarre as it gets

Authors of the Impossible $22.5 Most scholars dismiss research into the paranormal as pseudoscience, a frivolous pursuit for the paranoid or gullible. Even historians of religion, whose work naturally attends to events beyond the realm of empirical science, have shown scant interest in the subject. But the history of psychical phenomena, Jeffrey J. Kripal contends, is an untapped source of insight into the sacred and by tracing that history through the last two centuries of Western thought we can see its potential centrality to the critical study of religion. Kripal grounds his study in the work of four major figures in the history of paranormal research: psychical researcher Frederic Myers; writer and humorist Charles Fort; astronomer, computer scientist, and ufologist Jacques Vallee; and philosopher and sociologist Bertrand Méheust. Through incisive analyses of these thinkers, Kripal ushers the reader into a beguiling world somewhere between fact, fiction, and fraud. The cultural history of telepathy, teleportation, and UFOs; a ghostly love story; the occult dimensions of science fiction; cold war psychic espionage; galactic colonialism; and the intimate relationship between consciousness and culture all come together in Authors of the Impossible , a dazzling and profound look at how the paranormal bridges the sacred and the scientific.

Fuzzy Fiction $45 Offers an evaluation of the work of contemporary French authors through the lens of the fuzzy set theory of mathematics.

The Art of Fiction $12.99 In 1958, Ayn Rand, already the world-famous author of such bestselling books as atlas shrugged and The Fountainhead, gave a private series of extemporaneous lectures in her own living room on the art of fiction. Tore Boeckmann and Leonard Peikoff for the first time now bring readers the edited transcript of these exciting personal statements. The Art of Fiction offers invaluable lessons, in which Rand analyzes the four essential elements of fiction: theme, plot, characterization, and style. She demonstrates her ideas by dissecting her best-known works, as well as those of other famous authors, such as Thomas Wolfe, Sinclair Lewis, and Victor Hugo. An historic accomplishment, this compendium will be a unique and fascinating resource for both writers and readers of fiction.
