According to his fellow sci-fi writers, Sheckley was the foremost troublemaker in science fiction. Humor, irony, which are filled with his stories, novels and novellas, so unique that it is enough to take out of the text at least a few lines to immediately say - this is Sheckley. And the author himself did not hide his attitude to literature: "I have tried all my life to be not too serious. I do not consider myself a political thinker and try to convey everything to readers in a light, unintrusive form. Irony is my style. I didn't choose irony as a natural basis for my thinking, it just happened. I think people are more interested in a mockery rather than a cautionary tale, an entertaining story rather than a verbose discourse. If what I say remains misunderstood or incompletely understood, if people just read a funny story and relax, that's fine with me." In the present edition, some of the stories and the novel "Mind Exchange" are published in new translations. The text of the novel, unlike in previous editions, is given without abridgment.
