In 1988, California joined with Arizona, North Dakota, and South Dakota to form the Southwestern Compact and agreed to be the host state for the compact's first regional disposal facility."

This copy has been signed, by the author, with a short inscription, on the title page. The cover art for this book was done by Edward Gorey. This book is in Very Good+ condition and has Very Good- dust jacket. The book and its contents are in mostly clean, bright condition.

The dust jacket has some generalized ground-in dirt, spots of foxing (mostly to the flaps) and a couple of small semi-closed nicks / tears, along with some light edgewear to the spine ends. "Anderson is probably best known for adventure stories in which larger-than-life characters succeed gleefully or fail heroically. His characters were nonetheless thoughtful, often introspective, and well developed. His plot lines frequently involved the application of social and political issues in a speculative manner appropriate to the science fiction genre. He also wrote some quieter works, generally of shorter length, which appeared more often during the latter part of his career. Much of his science fiction is thoroughly grounded in science (with the addition of unscientific but standard speculations such as faster-than-light travel). A specialty was imagining scientifically plausible non-Earthlike planets. Perhaps the best known was the planet of The Man Who Counts in which Anderson adjusted its size and composition so that humans could live in the open air but flying intelligent aliens could evolve, and he explored the consequences of those adjustments.
