Robert a Heinlein, Future History and World As Myth

Robert A Heinlein's series of Future History works chronicle a potential development of civilization through the year 2300. Including both short stories, published in magazines and collections, and novels, the series introduces his concept of World as Myth, opening the possibility for infinite collisions of myth and reality in a multiverse. This book begins with an introduction of Mr. Heinlein, his life, his career and his ideologies. Next, the concepts of future history and world as myth, and their influencing theories and genres are explored. Finally, we turn to the writings themselves, discussing, individually, each short story and novel.Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books.
