A good indication are the Hugo/Nebula winners. But Robert Silverberg is good; read Downward To Earth, and Dying Inside.

Brian Aldiss is a good British writer. He served in Burma in WW2, and apparently drew on this experience to write vividly about hot environments and mutated, overgrown, deadly vegetation; in Hot House (1962) and Non-Stop (1958.) They are both imaginative books, funny in places, with lots of deaths. His books have more characterisation than someone like Arthur Clarke.
