I love this book, it has been on my book shelves (nicked from my Dad's) for nearly 20 years. Presently re reading it at the moment, flicking between The Wrong World, Out of Step and Short Stack. Need to find a better copy as mine is beginning to fall apart. The stories are light and entertaining without the need to lecture, due to the age of the books it also gives an insight into the thoughts of the males writing women's roles in SF in the mid 20th century. Still All Good

Groff Conklin puts together some fine collections. The stories I liked best in this collection were Shortstack and Trouble Tide.
