Only 4 stories here: 'C-Chute', 'Breeds There A Man', 'Belief' and the one about the kid who starts taking walks outdoors when the house teleporter breaks down [available in Nightfall vol. 2]. They are good stories, but easily found elsewhere, making this a non-essential member of the Asimov cannon.

I listed to "The C Chute" on audiobook and found it to be an enjoyable short story with a few interesting characters. Nothing mind blowing, but a fairly fun and very quick read.

Collection of four short stories from the 1950s. Asimov was not the best writer from the Golden Age of science fiction but he contributed a great body of work that was full of new ideas. He is always worth reading.
"It's Such a Beautiful Day" Good juvenile story.
"Belief" Good power of the mind
"Breeds There a Man" Didn't like it
"The C-Chute" Good space travel story
