This is Volume 2 of the Mammoth Book of 20th Century Science Fiction - not to be combined with Volume 1. This collection was previously published under name of The Science Fiction Century - as a whole AND split into two volumes as well, although not in exactly the same manner. Those are also not to be combined.
