Joan Slonczewski's A Door into Ocean is the novel upon which the author's reputation as an important SF writer principally rests.
A ground-breaking work both of feminist SF and of world-building hard SF, it concerns the Sharers of Shora, a nation of women on a distant moon in the far future who are pacifists, highly advanced in biological sciences, and who reproduce by parthenogenesis--there are no males--and tells of the conflicts that erupt when a neighboring civilization decides to develop their ocean world, and send in an army.Languages:EnglishPublisher:St. Martins Press-3PLISBN-13:9780312876524ISBN-10:312876521UPC:9780312876524Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Science FictionBook Topic:Genetic Engineering, Hard Science FictionSize:8.57 x 5.48 x 1.05 inchesWeight:1.1508Product ID:SC5V70305S
