2. "Burning Chrome" by William Gibson
3. "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" by Ursula K. Le Guin
4. "Mimsy Were the Borogoves" by Lewis Padgett (C.L. Moore and Henry Kuttner)
5. "Fondly Fahrenheit" by Alfred Bester
6. "Faith of Our Fathers" by Philip K. Dick
7 "Vintage Season" by C. L. (Catherine) Moore
8. "Born with the Dead" by Robert Silverberg
9. "Sailing to Byzantium" by Robert Silverberg
10. "The Pure Product of America" by John Kessel
