These are tales that tackle some of humanitys oldest questions along with new quandaries that only Ted Chiang could imagine.In The Merchant and the Alchemists Gate, a portal through time forces a fabricseller in ancient Baghdad to grapple with past errors and the temptation of second chances. In the epistolary Exhalation, an alien scientist makes a shocking discovery with ramifications not just for his own people, but for all of reality. In Anxiety is the Dizziness of Freedom, the ability to glimpse into alternate universes necessitates a radically new examination of the concepts of choice and free will.In Exhalation, Ted Chiang addresses the most fundamental of issuesWhat is the nature of the universe?

And, each in its own way, the stories prove that complex and thoughtful science fiction can rise to new heights of beauty, meaning, and compassion.
