The stories display the full range of Lem\u2019s intense curiosity about scientific ideas as well as his sardonic approach to human nature, presenting as multifarious a collection of mad scientists as any reader could wish for. Many of these stories feature artificial intelligences or artificial life forms, long a Lem preoccupation; some feature quite insane theories of cosmology or evolution. All are thought-provoking and scathingly funny.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #333333;\"><strong>ANTHOLOGIES<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><em><strong><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-10743\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sfintranslation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MZF.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"135\" height=\"204\" \/><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"http:\/\/zionfiction.com\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">More Zion\u2019s Fiction: Wondrous Tales from the Israeli ImagiNation<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/em><strong>, edited by Emmanuel Lottem and Sheldon Teitelbaum, translated from the Hebrew by Emmanuel Teitelbaum (<span class=\"a-list-item\">Zion&#8217;s Fiction Partners<\/span>, September 15).<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\">MZF will feature a foreword by David Brin, an afterword by Marleen S.
