3.0

New Worlds #2 is a random sample of New Wave science fiction, without much distinction. You'll recognize the authors, at least some of them, but these are midlist works. J.G. Ballard delivers a faceted paranoid story that pushes the limits of the form, Thomas M. Disch has a nice little trio, and Roger Zelazny has a beautiful meditation on supremely powerful robots attempting to find humanity. I can't remember much about the rest of the stories.
