Warm Worlds and Otherwise is a short story collection by Alice Sheldon that, under her pen name James Tiptree, Jr., was first published in 1975. This collection is notable for its introduction, "Who is Tiptree, What is He?", in which fellow Science Fiction author Robert Silverberg wrote that he found the theory that Tiptree was female "absurd", that the author of these stories could only be a man. When it was later revealed that Tiptree was a woman, a postscript to the introduction by Silverberg was added to the collection.
| “ | Twelve furiously imaginative, occasionally explosive SF stories, the best of which are quite brilliant | ” |

In the valley warm and green,
Full of baby wonderment,
Blinking out of silly eyes
At a hundred mysteries;”
