New Worlds was a pinnacle of the 1960s counterculture. From 1964 to 1971, under the editorship of Michael Moorcock, New Worlds grew from a small science-fiction monthly to what JG Ballard later called 'one of the most exciting magazines of any kind in this country'. 
 
In Eduardo Paolozzi at New Worlds: Science Fiction and Art in the Sixties,  the work of artist Eduardo Paolozzi is showcased in the magazine along with that of Pop Art colleague Richard Hamilton. Paolozzi's close association with New Worlds was acknowledged via a masthead credit as 'Aeronautics Adviser'.
 
The book contains rare and unseen images from the archives of New Worlds and the Eduardo Paolozzi Foundation, including excerpts from what is thought to be an unpublished science-fiction novel by the artist. There are also new interviews about the magazine and its times with editor Moorcock, art editor Christopher Finch, designer Charles Platt, contributor Michael Butterworth, and critic John Clute.
