n.b. indica publishing history is incorrect: it omits the 1952 first uk edition, grayson & grayson h/cvr, q.v. and also the first uk p/b edition, the abridged digit book cat# D.164.
(it also omits mention of the 3/1954 sfbc #7 h/cvr edition, but this was more understandable as sidgwick & jackson's (later, phoenix house's) sfbc editions were not on sale to the general public, only to members of the - postal - science fiction book club.)
