Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is a pirated edition of a very early book of mine that I allowed to go into public domain, long ago, because I was replacing it with a revised edition. Back then, it did not seem worthwhile to renew the copyright, because I did not intend to allow a new edition of the original text to appear. Even though as a science-fiction writer I'm supposed to predict the future, I had no idea in 1969 that the Internet would arise and many years later so-called "publishers" would find this book and distribute it against my wishes for their own profit. It may be "classic' science fiction now but it's also the work of a beginning writer who, in later years, did not choose to offer it to readers, Someone else chose to do so anyway. You buy it at your own risk and with the knowledge that the author did not wish this version of the text, which he wrote when he was in college, to appear again. Robert Silverberg
