Blurb: 
An anthology of stories edited by Greg Bear and Martin H Greenberg Contains stories by Greg Abraham, Poul Anderson, Gregory Benford, Sterling Blake (Gregory Benford), George Alec Effinger, Greg Egan, Geoffrey A Landis, Ursula K Le Guin, Sonia Orin Lyris, Paul J McAuley, Mary Rosenblum, Carter Scholz, Robert Sheckley, Robert Silverberg, James Stevens-Arce "Hard" science fiction--SF that takes known scientific principles as its starting point--is, for many readers, the durable core of the field. But it is also accused, of being, as Greg Bear puts it, "a restrictive genre without a soul." Here, Nebula Award winner Bear puts forth the counterargument: an original collection of new SF tales from the cutting edge of the field, each an example of "science fiction with a great soul." {Mod Note}: 1st Edition ISBN: 0312859309
