Moon People Of Jupiter by Isaac R. Nathanson:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
"DEAN SWIFT’S task in writing his "Gulliver’s Travels” seems to us to have been almost a simple matter, compared to that which faces our modern writer of scientific fiction. With all our many marvelous inventions, which enable us to get almost anything, or go anywhere with a speed and ease which would have seemed miraculous to people even fifty years ago, a writer's mind must necessarily be taxed to the utmost in picturing a people many times further advanced than we. It adds to the plausibility of this very interesting story to set its action in the atmosphere of one of Jupiter’s moons".
