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]

Reception edit

A contemporary reviewer noted that just Sargent's introduction to the collection was "well worth the price of the book," as it is "packed with information about women writers and women characters in the sci fi field."[6]
