Format:Paperback
I am writing this review in response to the previous one.

This book contains 20 short stories.
The 2 best collections (according to Lawrence Sutin, author of 'Divine Invasions') are "The Best of Philip K Dick" And "The Golden Man", which are both out of print. Sutin's book rates the Golden Man as 8/10 and The Best of PKD as 10/10.

Human Is, contains 13 selection from "The Best of PKD" and 2 selections from "The Golden Man".

Human Is also contains The Novella 'The Variable Man' and 'We Can Remember It For You Wholesale.' (Total Recall)

Human Is, also contains, according to many, PKD's best short story, 'The Electric Ant'

In summation, 'Human Is' contains 20 classic stories and if you are a PKD fan it is a great purchase. I am sure Lawrence Sutin would rate it 10/10.

I like Philip K. Dick novels and he is one of my preferred authors but it appears that short stories are not his forte.
There are possibly 2 good stories from the 20 here. The rest are below par and probably would not be published from any lesser author.
