'The SF pulps began in the twenties and blossomed in the thirties. The forties were Campbell and the Astounding years, one man single-handedly inventing modern science fiction . . .
The fifties built on Campbell's foundations, new editors and new writers ... It was a vital and fascinating time to be alive and writing or reading SF, and that excitement is well reflected in the stories here.' from the Introduction by Brian W. Aldiss.
