Space: 1999 - Episode by Episode

Gerry Anderson's Space 1999 was a remarkable television series in several ways. Not only was it a benchmark in terms of special effects and grand visual style inspired by Kubrick's 2001, it was also a psychological and philosophical drama that tapped deep into many of the major social and political concerns of the early 1970s. In 1997-98 the Online Alpha community arranged a systematic discussion of all the 48 episodes on a week by week basis, debating and reflecting on the series from a 20 year retrospective view. As the series is now celebrating a 40 year anniversary, a paperback version of this discussion has been made available. The book is edited and introduced by Petter Ogland, and contains a foreword by Henry Keazor. Not only is the 1997-98 discussion insightful from a present perspective, it also offers ideas for further exploration and debate. The book is aimed both at science fiction scholars and genre enthusiasts in general.
