“Pairing scientific precision with emotional insight, this
accessible anthology makes a powerful case for featured author
Nancy Kress’s assertion that ‘stories are made out of and for
people.’ Readers will be captivated.”
—Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW
"The 10 very different thought experiments presented in this volume
make for a fun ride, revealing that human relationships will
continue to be as complicated and affirming in the future as they
are today. I would recommend the Netflix approach to this highly
readable collection: Binge it in one go, preferably with a
friend."
—Science
"All told, Entanglements is a massively successful anthology, one
which should put MIT Press on everyone's radar."
—Lightspeed
"These books are always something to look forward to..."
—Locus
