Analog, July 1973, p.166-7. Review by P. Schuyler Miller.
"New readers of Analog must read this anthology. Old-timers will be compelled to ... The Harrison-Aldiss commentary makes their anthology more than just a collection of old stories."

Foundation #6, May 1974. Review by Peter Nicholls.

Galaxy, May-June 1973, p.171-2. Review by Theodore Sturgeon.
"... it's called Volume One. Just how soon we may expect the rest, editors and publishers say not. Soon, I hope... I heartily applaud the choices."

Kirkus Reviews, 1st October 1972.

The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction #265 (Vol.44, No.6, June 1973). p.14-16. Review by Alexei Panshin.
"Harry Harrison and Brian Aldiss, have done a bad job. They have not edited historically. They have chosen to edit nostalgically ... Their commentary is less historical than it is an attempt to express their feelings in reading the magazine once upon a time. This means that they rely heavily on exclamation-pointed gush - broken occasionally by fits of condescension when their present adult selves momentarily reassert themselves."

New York Times Book Review, 28th January 1973. Review by Theodore Sturgeon.
