The Pyrotechnics of Lester del Rey SF's most protean personality--writer, editor, critic, publisher--sets off an incomparable fireworks display in these tales of robots and humans, animals and aliens, ghosts and gods, science and the supernatural . . . HELEN O'LOY If you want an ideal mate, build her! HEREAFTER, INC. This is Heaven? The hell it is! LITTLE JIMMY The invisible kid was a ghost for sure. But whose? INSTINCT The robots labored to re-create the extinct human species-- but there was one element they somehow left out. FOR I AM A JEALOUS PEOPLE "In God We Trust" is a great motto--until you find you can't. And much more!
