About this product

Product Information

Tom Swift is the main character of five series of American juvenile science fiction and adventure vels that emphasize science, invention and techlogy. First published in 1910, the series total more than 100 volumes. The character was created by Edward Stratemeyer, the founder of the Stratemeyer Syndicate, a book-packaging firm. Tom's adventures have been written by various ghostwriters, beginning with Howard Garis. Most of the books are credited to the collective pseudonym Victor Appleton. The 33 volumes of the second series use the pseudonym Victor Appleton II for the author. For this series, and some of the later series, the main character is Tom Swift, Jr. New titles have been published as recently as 2007. Most of the various series emphasized Tom's inventions. The books generally describe the effects of science and techlogy as wholly beneficial, and the role of the inventor in society as admirable and heroic. Translated into many languages, the books have sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. Tom Swift has also been the subject of a board game and a television series. Several famous people, including Steve Wozniak and Isaac Asimov, have cited Tom Swift as an inspiration. Several inventions, including the Taser, have been inspired allegedly by Swift's fictional inventions. TASER is said to be an acronym for Thomas A. Swift's Electric Rifle.
