The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Volume One 1929–1964: The Greatest Science Fiction Stories of All Time Chosen by the Members of the Science Fiction by Robert Silverberg
5.0
Many great stories.
This is a place to find "Flowers for Algernon", the 1959 short story by Daniel Keyes. It is much, much better than the expanded novel version, so please choose the story instead of the novel.
It is anthologized several places. I've referenced this collection (published in 1970) because it's easy to find and has a lot of other great stories.
To give credit to the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, which originally published the story, one might also choose to read it in these excellent collections:
The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction a 30 year perspective, 1980

or
The Best From Fantasy and Science Fiction, 9th Series: Flowers for Algernon (Ace Books, No. F-267)
