The mailman just dropped it in my doorstep: Colonialism and the Emergence of Science Fiction, by John Rieder. Larry had already put on a good word on it, so I decided to give it a try - as you may know, the matter of the "other" interestes me deeply.
Thanks to John Rieder and to Leslie Starr and Stephanie Elliott at Wesleyan University Press for sending me the book. Expect a review soon.

That sounds interesing! Do you lend books to the friends? :P
Not so fast, dear!
First I would have to read it, then review it. Then you´d a sign a contract written in your blood to give me your soul (no, wait -- that´s another story). :-)
