5.0

I picked this edition only because it has the cover art. I have it in hardback (same cover), but for some reason GoodReads' record for the HB lacks the art. Anyways, I read this back in 2000. A very intriguing anthology. Here is what I wrote in my journal back then:

>>The book is a collection of short stories dealing with alternative forms of reproduction such as cloning or genetic engineering. The stories were well written overall and presented a myriad of possibilities. The story "Daddy's World" stuck with me, not so much because it was the last one in the book but because of its ending, which could be seen as shocking or terrifying yet very subtle [no, I won't tell you. Go read it]. <<

Back then, I did not hesitate to recommend it to my significant other (an avid SF reader), and thus I do not hesitate recommending it to folks here.
