They are essentially the same text. "Out Like a Light" was the magazine version, published in John W. Campbell's Astounding SF magazine, to which Garrett was a major contributor. _The Impossibles_ was the title of the book version.

The Impossibles is the third of the "Queen's Own FBI" series, written by Garrett in collaboration with Laurence M. Janifer, and published under the pseudonym "Mark Phillips".

The first two were "Occasion for Disaster" (Astounding SF, published in book form as _Brain Twister_) and "That Sweet Little Old Lady" (Astounding SF, published in book form as _Supermind_)

Crutledge really ought to note this in his messages when he posts the books to avoid confusion.
