Another interesting book along this line is _A Pity About Earth_, I don't
recall the author, but it was half of an old ACE DOUBLE with R. A. Lafferty's
_Space Chantey_ on the other side.  The people in this book were the most
completely amoral characters I can ever remember reading about, and there
was a sort of strange fascination in watching them live.
