“Some of the stories in this book were quite average, but most of them are incredible, filled with great thoughts and written in a clever, amusing manner. I rate this highly for some ideas and tales which brought many smiles to my face with the irony portrayed in human behaviour (which Philip K Dick often captures perfectly) and observations of development and sci fi ideas which are poignant and thought provoking.
An easy to read and relaxed writing style seems consistent through the stories, which works perfectly with the subject matter, much of it feeling very tongue in cheek and witty. Shorts seem to have been an outlet of the author's musings and being my first taste of Dick (ha) outside of his novels I loved it.
