Blurb: 
The exciting chronicles of a dozen distant tomorrows.
Following the tremendous success of the science fiction "best of" series, we add another star-studded name to our distinguished roster of great authors--Cordwainer Smith. First appearing in a short-lived 1950 pulp magazine with "Scanners Live in Vain," Smith continued writing extensively in the field. Luckily for the genre he did. In the intervening years he created a rich legacy of stories. . . an entire history of man in the universe, stretching centuries into the future. Twelve of his best tales are included in this collector's anthology.
