This is a great short story book collecting the best Galaxy stories from 1973. My personal favorite was Field of Vision by Ursula K. Le Guin (Earthsea Trilogy). It's a story about two astronauts who return from an expedition to Mars with their senses warped to the point where one cannot hear and the other only sees bright lights. The story is pretty creepy. I highly recommend this book.
