Since its inception in 1997, The Heinlein Journal<\/em> has been the leading source of scholarship on Robert A. Heinlein, publishing work by some of the best known names in Heinlein scholarship. James Gifford<\/strong><\/a>, Robert Gorsch, Ph.D<\/strong>, Robert James, Ph.D<\/strong>, William H. Patterson<\/strong><\/a>, Farah Mendlesohn<\/strong><\/a>, Leon Stover, Ph.D<\/strong><\/a>, Edward Wysocki, Ph.D<\/strong><\/a>, and a host of others have published their research in The Heinlein Journal<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Journal<\/em> was founded by William H. Patterson<\/a> and ceased publishing on his passing in 2014. It was reestablished under the auspices of the Heinlein Society and in 2019 began publishing roughly once or twice a year, dependent on the number of article submissions received.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
