The author of these stories, Richard M. Elam, Jr. has been interested in science fiction since he was a boy and, although he has written hundreds of stories and articles, those included in this volume have never before appeared in book form. The author builds his science stories around a framework of established scientific fact and likely possibilities. In that way, the reader is stimulated beyond the limits of his scientific education by the thrilling entertainment of this exciting volume and is encouraged to probe further the mystery of the universe in his studies, experiments and imagination. While some of these stories, such as, “What Time Is It,” are pure fantasy, most of them are based on actual scientific possibilities. Grosset & Dunlap _Publishers_ New York 10, N. Y.
