“The most important original anthology series in [science fiction].”—The Washington Post Book World
With ten Hugo and Nebula award nominations and three consecutive Locus Awards for best original anthology, Full Spectrum is the most critically acclaimed original science fiction anthology series of its time. Now Full Spectrum returns with its fourth and most provocative installment to date, featuring the best speculative fiction being written today.
From David Brin’s tale of scientific obsession and consuming loneliness on a space station in the farthest reaches of space to Ursula K. Le Guin’s rich and mysterious evocation of the secret language of oppressed women to Ray Aldridge’s haunting tale of a planet where love can be deadly, these twenty fables of the future truly represent the full spectrum of the imagination from the known to the unknown—and everything in between.
Brilliant, disturbing, visionary, and startlingly original, Full Spectrum 4 is quite simply the state of the art of science and speculative fiction.

paperback. Etat : Near Fine. First edition. Another noteworthy entry in this laudable series of original anthologies, this one comprising 19 stories--one a translation from the French--and a poem from Ursula K. LeGuin. Best of the bunch: a splendid discourse on the enigmas of alien communication (John M. Landsberg); aliens, beauty, and art, in a striking combination (Ray Aldridge); a waggish and touching yarn featuring another story's minor characters (Martha Soukup); Andean saints and magic realism (Bonita Kale); brooding, provocative thoughts on aliens and alienation (Mark Rich); and, amusing and telling, a man who wakes up dead (Nancy Kress). Also worthwhile, if less remarkable by comparison: hermaphrodites, women warriors, alien artifacts, memory, magic, growing up, computers and paranoia, god and guilt, a deal with the devil, Mars, black holes, and Africa. High standards maintained: the fourth in this series is as thematically diverse, well crafted, and imaginative as ever. Near fine uread with light toning to page edges and margins. See photos clphE.
