Editor: John W. Campbell, Jr.
Date: 1952-00-00
Type: ANTHOLOGY
Webpages: Wikipedia-EN
Language: English
Note: From Wikipedia: Aside from a 1953 Science Fiction Book Club edition, the anthology has never been reprinted in its entirety. However, several abridged versions have been issued under various titles, as well as a pair of anthologies which together include all the stories from the original volume. The first abridged versions came from UK publisher Grayson & Grayson, in 1954, as The First Astounding Science Fiction Anthology (seven stories) and The Second Science Fiction Anthology (eight stories). Then in 1956 and 1957 Berkley Books issued two paperback selections. The first, with serial number G-41, had the same title as the original, 'The Astounding Science Fiction Anthology', but included only eight stories. This was re-released in 1967 under the title Selections from the Astounding Science Fiction Anthology. The second Berkley anthology, which had serial number G-47, was Astounding Tales of Space and Time; this selected another seven stories. Berkley included five stories not printed in the Grayson versions of the anthology, and omitted five that Grayson did print. Finally, in 1964 and 1965, Four Square printed a third version, again in two volumes, and with the same titles as the Grayson books: The First Astounding Science Fiction Anthology and The Second Astounding Science Fiction Anthology. The first volume contained eleven stories, and the second twelve stories; this version reprinted everything from the original 1952 one-volume edition except for Campbell's introduction.
