* PsychologicalTormentZone: In "Literature/TheEducationOfDrusillaStrange", a {{Novelette}} by Creator/TheodoreSturgeon, Drusilla is not only sent to Earth as a prison planet, she's also exposed to [[{{Telepathy}} psychic memories]] to punish her transgressions. She's punished with memories/visions/pictures of things she'll never have because she was sent to Earth.
* RaygunGothic: The cover is addicted to bubbles and circles, also having a preference to metal-looking spacesuits rather than fabric, drawing inspiration from the Mercury 7 styles popular at the time of publication.
* ShellShockedVeteran: In "[[Literature/COMrMakepeace c/o Mr. Makepeace]]", a ShortStory by Creator/PeterPhillips, Tristram Makepeace is a war veteran who is under strict orders to write to the Ministry of Pensions if his stress has any new developments. When he appeared to have a SplitPersonality that was {{Gaslighting}} himself, he was sent to an insane asylum.
* SplitPersonality: In "[[Literature/COMrMakepeace c/o Mr. Makepeace]]", a ShortStory by Creator/PeterPhillips, the doctors conclude that Mr Makepeace is suffering from a form of dissociated personality disorder, brought on by [[ShellShockedVeteran his experiences in war]].

* SwitchingPOV: In "Literature/TheEducationOfDrusillaStrange", a {{Novelette}} by Creator/TheodoreSturgeon, the story is told in [[PointOfView Third-Person omniscient]], but shifts into FirstPersonPerspective temporarily to show the audience what [[PsychologicalTormentZone her torture]] is like.
* {{Tagline}}: "17 stories and 2 short novels about the world of tomorrow by the greatest names in science fiction".
* {{Telepathy}}: In "Literature/TheEducationOfDrusillaStrange", a {{Novelette}} by Creator/TheodoreSturgeon, features a woman called Drusilla Strange who initially communicates by thinking at Chandler Behringer. She's able to send and receive thoughts, picking her name from his mind.
* {{Tulpa}}: In "[[Literature/COMrMakepeace c/o Mr. Makepeace]]", a ShortStory by Creator/PeterPhillips, the doctors conclude that Mr Makepeace is suffering from a form of [[SplitPersonality dissociated personality disorder]], one which manifests outward as a poltergeist/thanai. [[{{UsefulNotes/Tibet}} Tibetan monks]] and [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Abominable Snowmen]] are referenced to explain Mr Makepeace's delusions.
* VicariouslyAmbitious: In "Literature/TheEducationOfDrusillaStrange", a {{Novelette}} by Creator/TheodoreSturgeon, Drusilla learns that many women have been sent to Earth for the purpose of teaching their husband how to be better people.
