    Thrill to the best science fiction of the year prior to 1965, which
    in this case ran from 1946 to 1964.

    Amazing. Of all of the stories, the only one of which I've even heard
    (although not read) is the Zelazny. I'd thought that I'd read a story
    called "A Benefactor of Humanity", but that's just from the last line
    of "A Statue for Father".

    For a change, I remember them all. But then, this was about the tenth
    SF book I bought, and I must have read it five times (fun and economical!).

    Except for the Kit Reed story. Not because it was bad, but because it was >too good.

    I recall AT very fondly as well.
