Another of the group of writers from the 60's. My favorite of his was the Traveler in Black stories. For some reason, I tend to associate him with Alfred Bester's The Stars My Destination, possibly because I discovered the two books around the same time (Bester wrote about a decade earlier). Bester also wrote The Demolished Man. The Stars My Destination is one of emy all time favorite books. Like a lot of SF at the time, he focused more on pseudo science such as mind reading and teleportation rather than anything we would consider science.
