description
This collection contains sixteen stories and science articles by the remarkable author, Charles Sheffield. A mix of SF short stories and science fact essays, the ideas explored here in fact and fiction, nanotechnology, the future of space flight, and more, are going to shape our world as surely as communications and electronics have been shaping our present. The stories range in length from being barely a page ('The Seventeen-Year Locusts') to long novelettes ('The Courts of Xanadu'). They also range in mood from the very silly to very somber. Each of them provides a unique and highly imaginative look at the impact of technology on the human condition. Sheffield's longer works include Earthwatch, Man on Earth, Cold as Ice, and Brother to Dragons.Contents: Introduction (Dancing With Myself) • essay by Charles Sheffield Out of Copyright (1989) / short story by Charles Sheffield Tunicate, Tunicate, Wilt Thou Be Mine?
