  • Publication Series: Liverpool Science Fiction Texts and Studies Pub. Series Record # 223
  • Webpages: liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk-1, liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk-2, liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk-3
  • Note:
    • The normal status for the "Liverpool Science Fiction Texts and Studies" series was that a Hard Cover and Trade Paperback edition were released simultaneously in England, and both versions were released simultaneously or nearly simultaneously by a publisher in the US. All of these publications then fall into this publisher series. The US publishers were: (This list needs to be verified!)
      1. #1-8: Syracuse University Press
      2. #10 -- Serconia Press
      3. #16, 18-22, 24, 30-38 -- Chicago University Press
      4. #17 -- Duke University Press
      5. #28 -- Rowman and Littlefield
      6. No known US publisher for: 9, 11-15, 23, 25-27, 29, 39.
    • There appears not to have been a trade paperback edition of #1, 8, or 32. Vols 38 & 39 do not have paperback editions yet, but these may be planned.
    • Volume 35, and 37 on, changed from simultaneous publication of both hard and soft editions to the "time lapse" approach, where the hard cover edition is released first, and the trade paperback is released a few years later.
    • Most of the volumes in this series are non-fiction critical analysis, history, etc. Some of the volumes, however, reprinted early "classic" science fiction works. Those works also exist as publications not in this series.
    • Volume 2 of the series ("Anticipations: Essays on Early Science Fiction and Its Precursors") is also listed on Amazon UK as being published at essentially the same time by "Dump Eurospan". I don't know whether that is a true separate publication, or whether it belongs to this publication series.
