This collection gathers together 15 short stories by some giants of the science fiction world during the 1960's and 1970's. They are all gently humorous in nature; i.e. nothing knee-slapping, laugh-out-loud hilarious, but rather amusing and often subtly clever. As always in such anthologies, there were some great stories as well as some duds. Authors include Theodore Sturgeon, Harry Harrison, Barry N. Malzberg, Stanislaw Lem, Brian W. Aldiss and more.
