Another Kind is a collection ofscience fiction short stories by American writerChad Oliver. It was issued in hardcover and paperback byBallantine Books in 1955 and a German translation was issued in 1965.[1] It was Oliver's first collection.
"Scientific Method" was originally published as "Hands Across Space".[2]
The New York Times reviewer Villiers Gerson faulted Oliver's "uniformly quiet, underwritten style," declaring the "cumulative effect" of the stories was "emotional monotony; too cerebral for more than mild entertainment, they are clever fugues written in a minor key."[3]The Hartford Courant's George W. Earley praised Oliver's "excellent stories", saying he "has created some compellingly believable alien and earthly civilizations".[4]
