As some of you know, I'm a huge fan of classic SF short stories. The ones from the days of What If, the concise ones, that emphasized science and technology and ideas over characters and *L*iterary pretensions.
This book was just about perfect for me. There are lots of stories I've read before in other collections, but that's ok, as they're worth reading again. And the Notes that introduce the author & story get old and have nothing worth reading, but they're easily skipped or skimmed.
Best story, though not actually really representative, was Double Take, by [a:Jack Finney|6944|Jack Finney|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1243650090p2/6944.jpg], written before his famous [b:Time and Again|688562|Time and Again|Jack Finney|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1177233217s/688562.jpg|6887879].
I think you'd like it too, just on the basis you've read this review to the end and are considering doing so.
My beat-up mm pb avl for free to any US member - I'd really like to get it into the hands of at least one more reader. :) ( )
Back when PLayboy was just a publisher without today's connotations. This is a middle of the road collection of stories, 50's and 60's B movie fodder at best, plenty of bug eyed monsters, but an enjoyable read anyway. ( )
