Christopher Grimm, Clifford D. Simak, Fl. L. Wallace, Daniel F. Galouye and Frederik Pohl are the authors represented here in extraterrestrial tales. A game in which bodies are exchanged leads to a trial of vengeance; the do-it-yourself rage presents enormous problems when robots are in oversupply; an enforced stay on a stopover drives an engineer to producing intergalactial radio; a boy learns it is wiser to keep intelligence hidden from overlords; humans are saved from inhabitants of a satellite by a psychologist. Concentrated forecasting here.
