The usual problem with early sci-fi writing is here: there‘s not a single woman in any of the 18 short tales. However, that‘s the only gripe - The easiest crime to forgive? If one sci-fi Grand Master could be brought back to life to see where technology has taken us, even though he got to 90, I‘d say let it be Arthur. Lots of his predictions are so close it‘s uncanny. He was also a decent chap and humanitarian: this comes across in his writing.
