The second in our Omnibus series, this collection features some of the greatest short works of science fiction ever published, with authors including Arthur C. Clarke, Harry Harrison, Ursula Le Guin, and James Tiptree Jr. Ideal for book groups and the college classroom. Each selection includes a short biography of the author as well as questions for discussion.
“The world needs saving and the speculative content of science fiction—the testing of possible futures for livability, as John W. Campbell once put it—may be one way to do that. This anthology, and the imprimatur of the Great Books Foundation, is not only a major step forward but, if I may say so, overdue.”
— James Gunn, author of The Immortals, editor of the Road to Science Fiction series, and past president of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America
