description: Analog 9 anthology of popular Science Fiction stories. Magazines remain, to this day, the primary original source of short genre SF. It occurred to some editing people that if readers would buy a collection of old stories, or a magazine with new stories, they might buy a collection of new stories as well. Now such a collection might be built on a theme, or it might be planned as a one-shot. But one thing a magazine trades on is a consistent identity, a brand name. Why not a brand name for an anthology? Thus, the original Analog Anthology series.Contents: Introduction (Analog 9) (1973) • essay by Ben Bova Answer "Affirmative" or "Negative" (1972) / short story by Barbara Paul The Gold at the Starbow's End (1972) / novella by Frederik Pohl The Plague (1970) / novelette by Keith Laumer The Missing Man [Rescue Squad] (1971) / novella by Katherine MacLean Out, Wit!
