Imagination Unlimited is a 1952 anthology of science fiction short stories edited by Everett F. Bleiler and T. E. Dikty and published by Farrar, Straus & Young. An abridged edition was published in the UK by The Bodley Head in 1953 containing six of the stories from the US edition. The remaining stories were published in the UK by John Lane as Men of Space and Time. Ten of the stories originally appeared in the magazine Astounding; the others came from Thrilling Wonder Stories, Imagination and Galaxy Science Fiction.[1]
Except as noted, the stories originally appeared in Astounding Science Fiction. "Referent" was originally published under the byline "Brett Sterling". "Employment" was originally published under the byline "Lyman R. Lyon".[1]
P. Schuyler Miller, noting that the anthology was "built around more or less scientific concepts," praised it as "a good job, well done," meeting the standards of the editors' previous projects.[2]
