Baen, 1988 - Fiction - 289 pages
Man-Kzin wars is a series of military science fiction short story collections (and is the name of the first collection), as well as the eponymous conflicts between mankind and the Kzinti that they detail (the Kzinti call them the "Wars-With-Men"). They are set in Larry Niven's Known Space universe; however, Niven himself has only written a small number of the stories. All of the cover art for the books in the series is drawn by Stephen Hickman.

About the author (1988)

Larry Niven received his B.A. in mathematics in 1962. His first novel, World of Ptavvs (1966), was a success and launched his career. Niven has won five Hugos and one Nebula award, testimony that his colleagues in the science fiction world respect his work. Perhaps Niven's most well-known creation is Ringworld, a distant planet that may be taken as a metaphor for Earth, as it was once great but has since fallen into decay.
