Paperback: 7¼" x 4¼". Condition: Good: Moderate signs of wear. Cover Art: Josh Kirby (illustrator). 1962 Edition. © 1954: A collection of 17 short stories by Fredric Brown. 1st printing of 1962 edition:- Contents: Pattern / Placet Is A Crazy Place / Answer / Etaoin Shrdlu / Preposterous / Armageddon / Politeness / The Waveries / Reconciliation / The Hat Trick / Search / Letter To A Phoenix / Daisies / The Angelic Angleworm / Sentence / The Yehudi Principle Solipsist:- Synopsis: Fantasy deals with things that are not and that cannot be. Science fiction deals with things that can be, that someday may be. Science fiction confines itself to possibilities within the realms of logic. In science fiction nothing is taken for granted; in fantasy nothing requires explanation. Almost any fantasy, incidentally, can be made into a science fiction story by eliminating the supernatural and substituting for it a scientific - or at least a possible - explanation of what happens. The stories in this book divide about equally between fantasy and science fiction. By which I mean that some are clearly one, some clearly the other, and a few fall in between:- Review(s): "Intelligent science fiction at its fascinating best" - Edmund Crispin:- (original cost 2'6).
