Science fiction of the fifties
The best story in this book is "Happy Birthday, Dear Jesus," by Frederik Pohl. And it's definitely not a science fiction story. Seek it out if you love short stories.
Some other memorable stories herein are: "The Liberation of Earth," by William Tenn (an author who should be more widely known); and "Saucer of Loneliness" by Theo Sturgeon.
The editors seem to have taken pains to avoid including too many stories that have been repeatedly anthologized. Out of 21 stories, there were only four titles that I recognized when I first opened the covers. If you enjoy science fiction stories, and if you can even find a copy of this book, it's probably a worthy addition to your library.
