Stories for a "better future" is a very loose term for these short stories. I enjoyed a few of them; many of them I found to be too dominated by male ego, not very socially progressive.  Some are futures that I couldn't really consider better in any way, even though they were interesting for thought. My favorite was Entanglement by Vandana Singh. I also enjoyed the interview at the end of the book.
