Science Fiction and Pop Culture

By John Walters on Wednesday, May 15, 2002.

The new Star Wars movie is coming out tomorrow and we'll be talking sci-fi with writer and teacher Jeanne Cavelos. She's written several books, including "The Science of Star Wars." We'll talk about the good and bad of the Star Wars saga, whether or not it's really science fiction, and other examples of sci-fi in pop culture. Check out her work on http://www.sff.net/people/jcavelos/
