Well for the most part this was Fine. I'm not really a sci-fi sort of person so this was... not really what I was expecting. Basically all the stories were serviceable, if misguided in places, though this was written in the early 1950s what can you expect, except the last one which was horrifically fatphobic.

Oh also MUCH more Christian overtone than I would have thought.
