Errata

Page xi: "Debate still prevails on what the first science fiction (sf) book really was."
  The author mentions a number of possibilities but fails to list the work by Lucian of Samosata.
Page xiii: "In one humorous preface, Roger Silverberg says of James Tiptree, Jr.,..."
  This must be a hitherto unknown luminary of SF criticism. I wonder if Robert Silverberg has heard of him...
Page ?: "Alexei Panskin Rite of Passage (1968)"
  Spelling: S/B "Panshin".
