''The Other Side of the Moon'' is an anthology of science fiction stories edited by August Derleth. It was first published by Pellegrini & Cudahy in 1949. Many of the stories had originally appeared in the magazines ''The Graphic Christmas'', ''Astounding Stories'', ''Thrilling Wonder Stories'', ''Wonder Stories'', ''Weird Tales'', ''Blue Book'', ''Planet Stories'', ''The Saturday Evening Post'', ''Collier's Weekly'' or in the collections ''The Fourth Book of Jorkens'' by Lord Dunsany and ''The Witchfinder'' by S. Fowler Wright. Aside from a second printing by Pellegrini and Cudahy in 1949, the anthology has never been reprinted in its original form. All subsequent editions were substantially abridged. The only British hardcover, from Grayson & Grayson in 1956, contained only 11 stories. The only American paperback, a 1959 Berkley Books version, included only 10 of the original 20 stories. The first British paperback, from Panther Books in 1963, also included only 10 stories, though the selection was somewhat different. A 1966 British paperback, from Mayflower-Dell in 1966, carried the same title, but contained the 10 stories not included in the Panther edition.〔(ISFDB publishing history )〕〔(Index to Science Fiction Anthologies and Collections )〕〔(Index to Science Fiction Anthologies and Collections )〕 In 1951, ''The New York Times reported that ''The Other Side of the Moon'' had become the first science fiction title to be included in the Talking Books program.〔"Science Fiction For Blind", ''New York Times'', December 12, 1951〕 ==Contents== * Introduction, by August Derleth * "The Appearance of Man", by John D.
