Science Fiction for January 2011
By Henry Leon Lazarus
Science Fiction and Fantasy are the literature about
people adapting to major change. I was amazed to meet at Philcon 2010 (where
I bought 4 books) an author of books about fraudulent science absolutely
convinced the global warming that would bring a rise of the ocean of one
meter over the next century would cause the death of billions and threaten
his new grandchild. Humanity has been around for a hundred and forty or
so thousand years and has weathered far worse. Oh well. Obviously he only
read non-fiction and was out of place at a Science fiction convention.
