About the author
Isaac Asimov
4,337 books27.8k followersWorks of prolific Russian-American writer Isaac Asimov include popular explanations of scientific principles,
The Foundation Trilogy
(1951-1953), and other volumes of fiction.
Isaac Asimov, a professor of biochemistry, wrote as a highly successful author, best known for his books.
Asimov, professor, generally considered of all time, edited more than five hundred books and ninety thousand letters and postcards. He published in nine of the ten major categories of the Dewey decimal classification but lacked only an entry in the category of philosophy (100).
People widely considered Asimov, a master of the genre alongside Robert Anson Heinlein and Arthur Charles Clarke as the "big three" during his lifetime. He later tied Galactic Empire and the Robot into the same universe as his most famous series to create a unified "future history" for his stories much like those that Heinlein pioneered and Cordwainer Smith and Poul Anderson previously produced. He penned "Nightfall," voted in 1964 as the best short story of all time; many persons still honor this title. He also produced well mysteries, fantasy, and a great quantity of nonfiction. Asimov used Paul French, the pen name, for the Lucky Starr, series of juvenile novels.
Most books of Asimov in a historical way go as far back to a time with possible question or concept at its simplest stage. He often provides and mentions well nationalities, birth, and death dates for persons and etymologies and pronunciation guides for technical terms. Guide to Science, the tripartite set Understanding Physics, and Chronology of Science and Discovery exemplify these books.
Asimov, a long-time member, reluctantly served as vice president of Mensa international and described some members of that organization as "brain-proud and aggressive about their IQs." He took more pleasure as president of the humanist association. The asteroid 5020 Asimov, the magazine Asimov's Science Fiction, an elementary school in Brooklyn in New York, and two different awards honor his name.

Heel veel ultrakorte verhalen van een rist topschrijvers, dat kan gewoon niet tegenvallen. En dat klopt. Hoe je smaak ook is, tussen deze overvloed zal je zeker enkele pareltjes en een massa heel goeie verhalen ontdekken. Bruna heeft echt wel alle registers opengetrokken om van het 100ste Sci-fi boek een blijvertje te maken.
Een waarschuwing toch - maar zeker niet negatief - voor wie op basis van deze verhalen een keuze wil maken tussen deze schrijvers om hun oeuvre verder te ontdekken: sci-fi schrijvers publiceren niet enkel goeie plots waar ze toch geen volledig boek kunnen over schrijver als kort verhaal maar ook verhalen in een totaal ander subgenre als wat ze normaal schrijven.
