About the author

Isaac Asimov

4,355 books28k followers
Works 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.

Tengo que ser sincero y comerme mis propias palabras sobre la critica al primer libro.
El libro original de la Fundacion lo lei hace muchos años y no me parecio ninguna maravilla. Eso hizo que no leyese ninguna continuacion en su momento.
Depues de casi 26 años lo volvi a releer hace unas semanas y por el condicionamiento de ese recuerdo me parecio un libro que no estaba a la altura de la fama, aunque decidi seguir con la historia y darle una oportunidad a Fundacion e Imperio, y no puedo estar mas agradecido a esa decision.
Seguire con el Ciclo de la Fundacion sin ninguna duda y entiendo porque hay varias ediciones con la trilogia de la Fundacion en un solo volumen.
Recomendable y obligatorio si eres amante de la ciencia-ficcion

Gustoume bastante máis que a primeira parte, especialmente pola aparición de personaxes máis duradeiras e complexas. Gustoume o Mulo, un antagonista que puxo sobre a mesa un elemento que non me esperaba nesta saga e que fomenta a miña intriga polo resto da historia.
