Reviews for Formula Fiction?: An Anatomy of American Science Fiction, 1930-1940

?The application of formula analysis to science fiction may not be as unusual as the author suggests, but his thesis is sound and his arguments persuasive.... The choice of material from Astounding Stories/Science Fiction is a good beginning. It should be most representative since it was the first magazine to take science fiction seriously and it had the widest circulation.... For all collections with an emphasis on popular culture.?-Choice
