Emily Ashton is Assistant Professor of Early Childhood Education at the University of Regina, Canada.

Ashton produces a book that weaves together a posthumanist perspective on the figure of the child with a number of apocalyptic science-fiction texts, situating her work in the context of sf studies and creating an interdisciplinary approach that will be of interest to many scholarly fields ... Ashton convincingly shows how speculative fiction is a productive site for imaginatively exploring the tensions and contradictions of Anthropocene childhoods in the climate crisis and at the end of the world, recognizing the activist affordances that so many contemporary sf scholars are finding in the genre.
