Synopsis

Dangerous Visions was a science fiction short story anthology edited by Harlan Ellison, published in 1967. A path-breaking collection, Dangerous Visions helped define the New Wave science fiction movement, particularly in its depiction of sex in science fiction. Writer/editor Al Sarrantonio writes how Dangerous Visions "almost single-handedly [... ] changed the way readers thought about science fiction. " The list of the authors' names reads like a Who's Who of 1960s science fiction.
