Worlds Within & The Slave by Rog Phillips
Rog Phillips was one of the frequent contributors to the pulp SF magazines of the 1950s. By my count he had stories in at least 15 different pulp publications. With several stories in some. One of his novellas, "Rat In the Skull", was nominated for a HUGO.

"Worlds Within" was one of the 4 full length novels he wrote. Like many pulp regulars his transition to paperbacks was only a minor success. While a version of this story would have fit nicely into a 50's pulp magazine it was an uninteresting story as a novel. I can't even give it three stars for being average SF.

Unthinkable & Incomprehensible: Mind-Expanding… by Rog Phillips
Two short works by a classic sci fi writer of the 40s and 50s. Each deals with paradoxes in perception and are quite enjoyable to read. "Unthinkable", as well as several of Phillips' novels, are available for free on Gutenberg, and the two stories together are available for Kindle under this title, free at the time of this review (2015).
