Summary
From his first sale in 1950 on, Harry Harrison has been
one of the science fiction world's creative dynamos, working
in every subgenre of the field, always bursting with
provocative ideas. Parodic one moment, serious the next,
Harrison has been called by Brian Aldiss "one of the few
authors capable of carrying the old vigor of earlier days
forward into a new epoch." On the occasion of his fiftieth anniversary as a
professional writer, Harrison has gathered together fifty of
his best stories - one for each year - along with substantial
notes and introductory material. 50 in 50 is at once a memoir, a compendium of an engaging
body of work, and a look at the history of science fiction in
the second half of the 20th century.
