Ratings:
"Founding Father" by J. F. Bone (**** 1/2) excellent story, plot, original
"Mating Call" by Frank Herbert (***) interesting
"Nice Girl With Five Husbands" by Fritz Leiber (*** 1/2) predictable but well written
"Prone" by Mack Reynolds (*) boring, methodical
"The Education of Tigress McCardle" by C. M. Kornbluth (***) only par for Kornbluth
"Now Inhale" by Eric Frank Russell (*** 1/2) interesting, suspenseful for a good part of the story
"The Back of Our Heads" by Stephen Barr (***) interesting
"Button, Button" by Isaac Asimov (** 1/2)
"The Deep Down Dragon" by Judith Merril (****) fun and adventurous with a cool idea.
"The Kappa Nu Nexus" by Avram Davidson and Morton Klass (*) Frat gets girls. Childish story told in stuffy British colloquial.
"Idiot Solvant" by Gordon R. Dickson (**)
"Counter Security" by James White (***) Mystery, well-written.
"The Dreistein Case" by J. Lincoln Paine (*) Uh, what? ( )

Wonderful anthology, with unusual stories by Leiber, Kornbluth, Davidson, et al; there's never been anything quite like Stephen Barr's "The Back of Our Heads."
