Protected by new Brodart jacket cover:- Contents: Beachhead / Target Generation / The Fence / Kindergarten / Mirage / Skirmish / Immigrant:- Synopsis: In these fascinating science fiction stories the emphasis is on character rather than futuristic gadgetry. Mr Simak is never so dazzled by the lights on the instrument panel of the space ship as to overlook the man behind the stick. He is interested principally in the human mind; in the possible expansion of its powers and the appalling changes that expansion can bring. He is interested in what might happen if man's most daring aspiration, most Utopian daydreams, most chilling nightmares assumed physical reality:- (original cost 5'6).
