The expert dreamers have forseen:
A world threatened with extinction.
A vast face appearing in the center of the Andromeda Nebula.
A wicked twist in the dream of growing younger.
The obsolescence of humanity.
...and many other strange things. This is science fiction with an extra dimension - fiction written by men who are themselves practicing scientists.
Take one step beyond with the men who live there!
