Starship Troopers is classic Heinlein, pulpy, funny sci-fi from the golden age. It reads like a propaganda pamphlet for Heinlein's political and moral views, and he doesn't mind just banging the reader over the head with his message all the way through. But, this is a book from a time when science fiction writers were actual visionaries who charged themselves with defining the future of the human race, so I forgive him.
