Published in commemoration of James White's Guest of Honor status at the 1996 World Science Fiction Convention, this volume features works originally published between 1952 and 1990, along with a previously unpublished piece. It contains 10 of White's short stories, including the Hugo Award-nominated Custom Fitting, and nine essays culled from his contributions to various sci-fi magazines. Of particular note to fans of White's Sector General series--about an enormous interstellar hospital and its multi-species staff and patients--the book also contains a Sector General timeline and patient classification guide.
