'''Aldiss, Brian W., with David Wingrove. Trillion Year Spree: The History of Science Fiction.''' New York: Atheneum, 1986.

A "very much revised, altered, and enlarged version" of The Billion Year Spree (Introd. 17). For enlargements, see esp. the end of Ch. 14 and Chs. 15 and 16. See these histories of S. F. for brief discussions of Edward Bulwer-Lytton's The Coming Race (urbanized underworld), Jules Verne's "satanic cities," E. M. Forster's "Machine Stops," and A. Huxley's Brave New World, Jack Williamson's Legion of Time (anthropoidal ants), and F. Pohl's and C. M. Kornbluth's Wolfbane.
