    • Translated by Wulf H. Bergner.
    • Erroneously, the copyright is assigned to Brian Aldiss.
    • Apparent first printing ("Printed in Germany 1969" is stated on the copyright page).
    • Month of publication from the editor's statement in Terra Nova 78 (preview of Heyne paperbacks).
    • The cover is now credited to Atelier Heinrichs & Bachmann, but is in fact the same as with the first german publication.
