Stanley Grauman Weinbaum (April 4, 1902 - December 14, 1935) was an American science fiction author. His career in science fiction was short but influential. His first story, "A Martian Odyssey," was published to grea acclaim in July 1934, but he would be dead from lung cancer within eighteen months. Weinbaum was born in Louisville, Kentucky and attended school in Milwaukee. He attended the University of Wisconsin, first as a chemical engineering major but later switching to English as his major, but contrary to common belief he did not graduate. On a bet, Weinbaum took an exam for a friend, and was later discovered; he left the university in 1923.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Pygmalion's Spectacles is a science fiction tale by the American writer Stanley G. Weinbaum (1935). The story starts from subjective idealism or immaterialism. The tale tells us about the invention of Professor Albert Ludwig, which allows the user to experiment with the world through glasses; a world with smell, taste and touch. The story does not develop linearly, independent of the viewer, but around it, interactively and represents the first literary record of what is now known as Virtual Reality.
