THE BEST FROM FANTASY
AND SCIENCE FICTION
Eleventh Series

Edited by ROBERT P. MILLS


When I heard the learn'd astronomer,
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,
When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and
measure them,
When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause
in the lecture-room,
How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
Till rising and gliding out I wander'd off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look'd up in perfect silence at the stars. тАФWalt Whitman

For ISAAC ASIMOV,
the Good Doctor of F&SF,
without whose nobly lucid
explanations of scientific matters,
and inhumanly faithful
observance of deadlines,
this book would have been
put together just as easily,
but far less pleasantly
