| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Drug themes in science fiction by Robert Silverberg is a research booklet—part critical overview, part annotated bibliography—written in the mid-1970s. A scientific publication aimed at scholars and interested readers, it surveys how science fiction treats mind-altering substances. The likely topic is the depiction, classification, and cultural meaning of drug use in science fiction, and how those portrayals reflect broader social attitudes.<br/><br/>The book opens with a preface linking the rise of modern drug use to the growing popularity of science fiction, then offers an overview that defines the genre and explains why it is well suited to exploring altered states. The author classifies drug motifs into clear categories—euphorics, mind-expanders, panaceas, mind-controllers, intelligence and sensation enhancers, reality-testers, mind-injurers, and communicative agents—then contrasts two dominant stances: cautionary (drugs as decadence or tools of control) versus visionary (drugs as routes to insight and community). Using well-known examples, the essay traces a shift from early moral warnings to later, more permissive or exploratory treatments. The core of the book is a substantial annotated bibliography arranged by three periods—early 20th century “primitive,” mid-century “predictive,” and contemporary—each entry noting the work’s premise, type of drug theme, and significance. An index closes the volume, positioning science fiction as a mirror of social currents and a guide to near-future possibilities. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
