The 1975 Annual World’s Best SF, sometimes called Donald A. Wollheim Presents The 1975 Annual World’s Best SF, and also published under the title Wollheim’s World’s Best SF Series Four, is the fourth book in The Annual World's Best SF anthology series from DAW Books. It was edited by Donald A. Wollheim with Arthur W. Saha in 1975, and it presents what Wollheim regarded as the ten best short stories and novellas from the year 1974. It includes a cover painting by Richard V. Corben, and a brief introduction in which Wollheim argues that the world of the mid-1970's was just beginning to realize that its resources were limited, but that the science fiction community had known this for a long time.
