Note: In 1970, the work was slightly revised, but not sufficiently to warrant a separate ISFDB title record. The earliest published version was a 9-part serial in Other Worlds Science Stories, October 1952 to June 1953.

The entire first paragraph: "This book was originally written in 1948. After one publisher who had contracted for it failed, it was published serially in the magazine Other Worlds Science Fiction in 1952-53 and then published (with revisions) as a clothbound book by Gnome Press (New York) in 1954."
The second paragraph concerns the "number of minor factual and typographical errors", identifying three "main additions".
The third paragraph contains acknowledgments.
