The Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction is a lively story 
    of the role of women and feminism in the development of 
    American science fiction in its formative years of the mid-twentieth century. 
    Beginning in 1926 and moving through the 19905, 
    Justine Larbalestier examines science fiction’s engagement 
    with questions of femininity, masculinity, sex and sexuality 
    as it emerged in the stories, letters and articles in science fiction magazines and fanzines.
