The New Women of Wonder: Recent Science Fiction Stories by Women About Women is an anthology of short stories, novelettes, novellas, and a poem edited by Pamela Sargent. The collection reprinted work by contemporary female science fiction authors, originally published from 1967 to 1977. It was published in 1978.[1]
The New Women of Wonder is the third anthology in a series of three volumes published in the 1970s, preceded by Women of Wonder (1975), and More Women of Wonder (1976). These volumes are considered one of the first science fiction collections to focus on women in science fiction both as authors and as varied and complex characters.[2][3][4] Sargent's introductions to the anthologies, in particular, are seen to have offered "comprehensive and informed analyses of the images and role of women in sf."[5]
