Synopsis: From the jacket: Here are twenty-six of the best science fiction stories ever written, chosen by those people who know better than any others what the criteria for excellence should be-the Science Fiction Writers of America.
Authors included in this collection are the men and women who have done the most to give form and substance to modern science fiction. Their names form a distinguished roster; their works provide a brilliant panorama of the evolutionary stages of the genre; their diversities of style and subject illustrate the broad latitudes encompassed by the term "science fiction."
Robert Heinlein, in The Roads Must Roll, describes an industrial civilization caught up in the deadly flaws of its own complexity. Country of The Kind, by Damon Knight, is a frightening portrayal of a biological mutation.Surface Tension, by James Blish, is thas story of how man adapts to a world of his own creation underwater. Nightfall, by Isaac Asimov, conceives of a planet where the sun sets but once a millennium and provides a chilling study in mass psychology.
This is but a sampling of the stories voted into the SCIENCE FICTION HALL OF FAME by the members of the SFWA. It is, without a doubt, a definitive collection of science fiction.
