It is very nicely pro- duced, has some 36 pages devoted to thought-provoking articles such as The Why and How of Dianetics, How Will Space Travel Affect Science Fiction?, About Flying Saucers, etc. All well done, adult and intelligent, like the Canadian publication.

It has in the region of 20 pages containing stories, articles and various regular departments such as fantasy focus, readers’ letters, film reviews and a quiz. The production could easily be better, though it is pretty good.
