==Mission==
"The Women's Press science fiction series features new titles by contemporary writers and reprints of classic works by well known authors. Our aim is to publish science fiction by women and about women; to present exciting and provocative feminist images of the future that will offer an alternative vision of science and technology, and challenge male domination of the science fiction tradition itself.

"We hope that the series will encourage more women both to read and write science fiction, and give the traditional science fiction readership a new and stimulating perspective."

They have published a number of SF works without any indication on the work itself of belonging to the "science fiction series"; e.g., [[Rosaleen Love]]'s collection ''[[Evolution Annie and Other Stories]]''; [[Sandi Hall]]'s ''[[The Godmothers]]'' (labeled on the front, however, "A Science Fiction Novel"); [[Suniti Namjoshi]]'s ''[[The Mothers of Maya Diip]]''.
