Between Literature and Science is written by Peter Swirski and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0773520430 (ISBN 10) and 9780773520431 (ISBN 13).

In Between Literature and Science Peter Swirski examines the true intellectual scope of Edgar Allan Poe and Stanislaw Lem. Using a genuinely interdisciplinary approach he shows that they propose far-reaching hypotheses in aesthetics, epistemology, cognitive science, philosophy of science, literary studies, and pragmatics as well as in cosmology, artificial intelligence, and futurology. Swirski argues that previous studies of their science fiction works, in neglecting these broader philosophical and scientific ambitions, have misrepresented Poe and Lem's artistic achievements.
