Liquid space: science fiction film and television in the digital age

Science fiction is perhaps the most effective genre to explore the concerns of the present whilst reflecting on the possibilities of the future.

But what precisely can it tell us about present and future by setting these two timeframes in the same critical space?

In this remarkable and original book, Sean Redmond examines the issues and themes that are repeatedly found across a range of contemporary science fiction films and television programmes.

He argues that they reveal the profound effects the digital age has had on our social lives.
