These vividly imagined tales offer unforgettable visions of the future. The book includes Miller's sharp introduction, along with his thought-provoking and often irreverent commentary.

My life in the jungle by Jim Aikin. . . . . . . . . . . While it is sad that Walter Miller, the chief editor, is no longer with us, like with his novel 'A Canticle for Liebowitz', he has left us a high quality group of short tales. These tales come from a variety of first class authors. While there is no one who will think that every short story is to be as highly rated as the next one, very seldom did Miller and Greenberg miss the mark. In addition, the stories are arranged sequentially with tales of pre-megawar occurring first and the dystopic stories at the end of this well bound text. William Miller's forward, which was written in 1985, is a fascinating read unto itself. Most of the global predictions that Miller made regarding countries that would attain nuclear weaponry and the strong, negative influence that the Moral Majority would come to have on US politics read more like history than the predictive nature under which they were written. His prefices to each story, however, add little, if anything, to the tale itself. Rest in peace Mr. Miller. -- Ronald W. Maron. Nº de ref. del artículo: 108266
