		Cyril M. Kornbluth (1923-1958), known for his cynical, humorous, and insightful character-based stories, was among the most talented of the Futurians (a group of SF writers and fans in the late 1930s, who profoundly influenced the course of the Science Fiction field).
		Kornbluth's output was split between collaborations - mostly longer work - and his own pieces which tended to be shorter and more concise.
		Kornbluth's unique voice can be heard most clearly in his solo works, which have been frequently reprinted, but never before collected into a single definitive volume.

	Review of His Share of Glory: The Complete Science Fiction of Cyril M. Kornbluth
		Kornbluth revisits this idea in "The Little Black Bag," in which someone from the future accidentally sends a medical bag back into the past, where a down-on-his-luck doctor finds it and follows the easy instructions to miraculously cure the sick.
		In this story, Kornbluth is editing a collection of tiny messages from his friend Corwin that he found hidden inside fortune cookies.
		This collection is pure Kornbluth: acerbic, witty, and full of the things which made him such an important name in the SF field.

		Kornbluth's doctor told him that if he wanted to live much longer he would have to give up spices, cigarettes, and alcohol, and take regular doses of rauwolfia extracts (probably Rauwolfia Serpentina, or Indian Snakeroot, which is a known antihypertensive).
		Kornbluth did as instructed, even cutting out alcohol (Kornbluth was a heavy drinker, and according to Pohl, was known to finish off cough syrup and even vanilla extract when liquor wasn't available), but the medication made his quick mind slow and dull.
		Kornbluth later wrote about the future the bag came from in "The Marching Morons," in which a small group of intelligentsia keep the world functioning for a mass of imbeciles.

		Kornbluth was prone to experiment, not content to mine the "mainstream." If you haven't read any Kornbluth, you may want to start elsewhere.
		Kornbluth's stories are not sweetness and light, he writes of the darkness in the human spirit, even in the point of view characters in the books.
		Kornbluth was way ahead of his time and these stories are not of the cheesy variety as most "golden age" sci fi seems to be.

	The Best of C.M. Kornbluth (C. M. Kornbluth , Cyril M. Kornbluth) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Kornbluth is a fine example of why that period of time was called the Golden Age of science fiction.
		Kornbluth is one of a number of almost forgotten writers, many of whom also died young, dismissed these days because they worked in science-fiction and the pulp markets.
		Little has been written since in the area of short stories to top the best of Kornbluth; and even those tales of his which have been overtaken by events (such as his story about the first manned rocket) are so original and well written that they remain far more than just period curiosities.

		Collaborative writing is something that Kornbluth was very fond of, and in addition to his work with Pohl he penned a number of stories with Judith Merril (then Frederik Pohl's wife).
		The war interrupted Kornbluth's attempts at higher education (he attended the University of Chicago for a while), and he eventually took part in the Battle of the Bulge.
		In the end, Kornbluth made extensive contributions to the field of SF, even though he was with us for only a short time.

	: RevolutionSF - His Share of Glory: The Complete Short Science Fiction of C.M. Kornbluth : Review
		Cyril M. Kornbluth began publishing SF when he was fifteen, and died at the ripe old age of thirty-four.
		A founding member of the Futurians—a New York group of science fiction fans that would grow up to become Isaac Asimov, Frederik Pohl, Robert Lowndes and DAW founder Donald A. Wollheim—Kornbluth wrote for the early pulps under a variety of pseudonyms.
		It could almost be considered recursive, since the main character is Cecil Corwin, one of Kornbluth's noms de plum, and there are editorial asides by Kornbluth himself: Kornbluth is editing a collection of tiny messages from his friend Corwin that he found hidden inside fortune cookies.

		It has the sense of wonder, the rip-roaring plot, the "Oh, wow" moments, along with numerous pungent observations on government, religion, sex, etc. Written in 1952, it fulfills it's mission of entertainment magnificently.
		Kornbluth and Merrill were such talented writers; it's a shame they couldn't have written at a time when publisher would allow a SF writer 300 pages to fully flesh out a story (as opposed to today, when even marginal writers get 400 pages fo "Volume One of the Chronicles of Boredome Octology).

		The foundation for this novel is Kornbluth's slightly earlier story, "The Marching Morons" (***), about a future which results from centuries of the least fit having the most children.
		Note that this, in turn, is based on a concept of eugenics which was far more accepted (and socially acceptable) early in the century than it is today.

		Indeed, when I was a youngster just discovering science fiction, many times they were spoken of as though they were a single author named Pohl Kornbluth.
		And of all the marvelous stories they wrote, The Space Merchants may very well be their finest.
		Frederik Pohl once said in an interview that he and Cyril Kornbluth were the most perfectly matched collaborators ever known.

	Fred Pohl
		He has written plenty of straight stories, like his alien encounter series beginning with Gateway, but it’s probably for the dry humour of books like The Space Merchants (with Cyril Kornbluth) that he is best known.
		However, it's not a pure adventure as the hero is not exactly the swashbuckling type as he spends much of his time talking to a computerised therapist.
		A classic Pohl and Kornbluth theme of the successful middle manager thrown on the scrapheap in a society which is very unpleasant under the surface.
