The life of the brilliant mathematician Hari Seldon, protagonist of the two prequels to Foundation series, draws to a close. However, thanks to "psychohistory", the complex discipline founded by himself to predict the behaviours of the masses over time, he timed it all perfectly. He leaves to future generations precise instructions in order to avoid several millennia of intergalactic barbarism. Well, it starts for me the science fiction and political fiction series that goes further into the future than any other book I read. A distant future where the origins of humanity can't be tracked anymore, where you doubt about the assumption that the human race was born on one, single planet. La vita del matematico Hari Seldon, protagonista dei due prequel al Ciclo delle Fondazioni, volge al termine. Ma, grazie alla psicostoria, la complicata disciplina fondata da lui stesso allo scopo di predire i comportamenti delle masse nel tempo, ha calcolato tutto. Jump to ratings and reviews. Want to read.

And I understand that for this story there really doesn't need to be, because that's not the point. Themis-Athena Lioness at Large books friends. These included a few stories that I considered particularly great. If you have never read the original classics, I don't know if this would be the truly proper place to begin them. The only thing that detracted from my enjoyment, was the protagonist's awkward attempt at flirting. Fritz Leiber Contributor ,. Dealing with our inheritance of what is usually called culture, or tradition, or simply the past is a difficult subject to think about. Wick Welker. Isaac Asimov Average rating 4. Asimov's later Foundation novels appear to be about double the size of any of the novels in the original series, but that's neither here nor there because apparently size matters these days. Still, I was a tad bummed by the lack in this area. Having lived the last 20, years, Demerzel sees the approaching collapse of the Empire as inevitable and psychohistory as the mechanism by which to minimize the fallout. I have rad but 4 of them.

The only great and also famous titan at the same level is Clarke with very heavy mental overloads while reading and sometimes feeling more like work or learning than entertainment, brrrrr. Wick Welker. This book was written at a different time, mostly in the 's, but the story takes place in the high-tech future where you would not expect to hear phrases like "women and children", "man to man", etc. A few, like Dan Simmons' georgeous Hyperion, are masterworks in any genre. This is an amazing collection of his thoughts on suspence, irony, satire and how to use them in stories. It is believed that another world has technological growth, which puts the powerful position of the Foundation in jeopardy. By cutting the enormity of psychohistory down to size, some of the series' allure invariably wisps away. Certainly far from being the best or the most representative of Asimov's work. The futuristic tech and world building are a lot of fun of course, though you will have to allow for some dated tech ideas or anachronisms such as messages printed on tapes, the use of microfilms and lack of AI computers are not mentioned. It also has some of the same weaknesses: obsession with gender roles, sexism although a vast improvement from the prior books as well as some tedium with how the story is told. Absolutely Loved it! The stories were definitely good. As a reader, I felt his prose flowed like magic. It turns out the Emperor wants Hari to use his new theory to help the EMpire, as a propaganda piece.
