This book presents the reader with some of the earliest classic SF
short stories - all of them published between 1858 and 1934,
featuring both well-known and long-forgotten writers - dealing for
the first time with topics to which science had (some) answers only
at much later stages. This includes aspects of alien life forms,
transmogrification, pandemics, life on Mars, android robots, big
data, matter transmission and impact events to name but a few. The
short stories are reprinted in full alongside extensive
commentaries which also examine some of the latest scientific
thinking surrounding the story's main theme and provide the reader
with suggestions for further reading.
