First published in 2001 by editors Creator/RobertSilverberg and Creator/MartinHGreenberg. This GenreAnthology contains fifteen ScienceFiction stories that were first published in 1964, ranging in length from ShortStory to {{Novelette}}. The introduction describes "the world outside reality" first, marking significant historical events, sports trivia, and literary publications. The "real world" is the science fiction and fantasy pop culture, the NewWave of Science Fiction. This book bridges an apparent "gap" between ''Literature/IsaacAsimovPresentsTheGreatScienceFictionStoriesVolume251963'' and ''Literature/WorldsBestScienceFiction1965''.[[note]]The gap is created by the different numbering; ''World's Best'’ is the year the book was published (covering the previous year), while ''Great SF'’ is the year covered by the anthology. Therefore, this volume overlaps with the first ''World's Best''.[[/note]]

* DepravedHomosexual: Creator/CordwainerSmith's "Literature/TheCrimeAndTheGloryOfCommanderSuzdal": It's not clear if the once-human klopts are depraved because they are homosexual, or because of the social, psychological and hormonal disruptions brought about by their need to become a [[OneGenderRace monosexual culture]] (the alternative is dying out).

!!''Robert Silverberg Presents: The Great Science Fiction Stories (1964)'' provides examples of:
* {{Biography}}: Each story is prefaced by a short description of why this story (from this author) was chosen to represent one of the fifteen best stories of the year along with a paragraph from Creator/RobertSilverberg's perspective.
* DepravedHomosexual: Creator/CordwainerSmith's "Literature/TheCrimeAndTheGloryOfCommanderSuzdal": It's not clear if the once-human klopts are depraved because they are homosexual, or because of the social, psychological and hormonal disruptions brought about by their need to become a [[OneGenderRace monosexual culture]] (the alternative is dying out).
* EternalLove: Creator/RogerZelazny's "Literature/TheGraveyardHeart": This story features a couple who achieve their long-lasting relationship through science rather than supernatural forces: they're members of a group that put themselves into [[HumanPopsicle cryogenic stasis]] for years at a time, only coming out of it to throw a huge party, and going back into stasis afterwards.
* {{Gendercide}}: Creator/CordwainerSmith's "Literature/TheCrimeAndTheGloryOfCommanderSuzdal": The settlers of an isolated planet nearly lose all the women to a virus or mutation which "turned femininity carcinogenic". A few surviving women [[ArtisticLicenseBiology actually turn themselves into men through massive testosterone injections]] and manage reproduction through embryonic implantation. Over the centuries their memories of womanhood and eventually the Earth itself are twisted into monstrous hatred. Then [[OhCrap Commander Suzdal shows up in his scout ship...]]
* HomosexualReproduction: When the planet Arachosia was originally settled, a bizarre happenstance, in the author's words, "rendered femininity carcinogenic". The end result is a [[OneGenderRace monosexual society]] of beings neither truly male nor truly female, incapable of conventional reproduction and with an abiding hatred of normal humans.
* HumanPopsicle: Creator/RogerZelazny's "Literature/TheGraveyardHeart": This story features group of people who spend a year in cryonic preservation, then come out of it for a single day to throw a huge party, and going back into stasis to repeat the cycle.
* MisterSeahorse: Creator/CordwainerSmith's "Literature/TheCrimeAndTheGloryOfCommanderSuzdal": The once-human klopts reproduce by implanting a lump of cells in the gut and give birth by C-section.
* OneWordTitle: Creator/RobertSilverberg's "{{Literature/Neighbor}}"
* TimeDilation:
** Creator/UrsulaKLeGuin's "[[Literature/SemleysNecklace The Dowry Of Angyar]]": This story (later incorporated into the novel ''[[Literature/RocannonsWorld Rocannon's World]]'') features Semley going on a quest to recover the lost heirloom of the title, and meeting a group of dwarf-like creatures who promise to help her get it back. What she doesn't realise is that they've taken it to another planet, eight light-years away, and thanks to relativity, what seems like a short trip to her is actually 16 years.
** Creator/CordwainerSmith's "Literature/TheCrimeAndTheGloryOfCommanderSuzdal": By traveling through [[SubspaceOrHyperspace non-space]], Suzdal and his ship subjectively experiences thousands of years. Even stranger, when the ship heads back to Earth, "time winds up" and the ship comes back as if only a few objective years have passed, making it an InvertedTrope example. [[spoiler:And this is only some of the wacky TimeTravel hi-jinks in this tale.]]
