Information about Robert A. Heinlein

Robert A. Heinlein

Ranked as one of the most important modern science fiction writers along with Theodore Sturgeon, A.E. van Vogt and Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein is the author of "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" and "Stranger in a Strange Land", among countless others. Instead of focusing on human transformation through technology, Heinlein introduced elements of romance, adventure and mystery into his stories. He created a genre that featured world building, adding a political and, more important, historical perspective in his books. This style of writing, where an entire world is created before a single word has been written, has set the standard in science fiction writing.
