Reception

Dave Pringle reviewed The Golden Age of Science Fiction for Imagine magazine, and stated that "a fat collection of 1950s SF, aimed at the 'general reader' and including stories by Pohl, Blish, Sheckley, Clarke, Asimov, etc. A good anthology, but many of us will have read it all before."[1]
