I've been away from hard Sci-Fi for quite some years, but seem to be in the mood for it again now. I'd rather start with some short story collections; thinking here along the the lines of what Asmiov, Clarke and others used to publish (collections previously published in magazines etc.). Thought provoking stuff that takes the current state of science and does something interesting with it. (I'm not usually a fan of short stories, but I think they often work best for this sort of thing.)

Suggestions? Are there many out there doing this sort of thing anymore?
