Storyline:
Case and the Dreamer: In Space: No-one had been aboard the space ship for over seven hundred years. It was designed for men like Case-so they brought him back to life. Mankind had a desire that only Case could fulfil. Luckily, Case and his computer had a desire that was greater still...

If All Men were Brothers, Would You Let One Marry Your Sister? Why would human beings rather die insane and in agony rather than accept the conventions of this pastoral planet and its beautiful people?

When You Care, When You Love deals with an extremely rich young woman who expends a considerable amount of her fortune to have her dead lover cloned and arranges for the subsequent child to have an indentical life to the original, so that when they meet he will be emotionally identical; and who then arranges for the aging process in herself to be suspended until the child is grown
