"Warm Worlds and Otherwise" is a short story collection by Alice Sheldon (under the pen name James Tiptree, Jr) that was first published in 1975. This collection is notable for its introduction, in which 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 by Silverberg was added to the collection.
