Note: Collects the stories of two collections: A Handful of Darkness The Preserving Machine but dropping the stories which were included in Die besten Stories von Philip K. Dick, since this latter collection was published a short time before by Moewig in their Playboy pub. series. Note that from that variant of The Best of Philip K. Dick the novelette 'If There Were No Benny Cemoli' was omitted but is therefore included here. Translated by Thomas Ziegler (20 stories). Translated by Andreas Brandhorst (2 stories)
