Anderson's most reknown future history, including tales of Nicholas Van Rijn and David Falkayn, Traders of the Polesotechnic League, and Dominic Flandry, Agent of the Terran Empire
A post-apocalyptic Earth of the distant future where industrial resources and technological know-how are scarce, culminating in the novel Orion Shall Rise

Anderson's "first" future history, comprised of stories written mostly between 1950-57, which chronicles the rebirth of human civilization after World War III and humanity's advance into the stars

The tales of Anson Guthrie, one of the first humans to have his consciousness "downloaded" into a computer, describe the evolution of humanity into space and eventually to the stars
