About the author
Isaac Asimov
4,341 books27.7k 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.

El primer libro de la serie ya me pareció buenísimo, y poca cosa nueva puedo añadir sobre este. Tiene menos contenido pero mucho más desarrollado: personajes más humanos, menos tramas pero mucho más profundas, e incluso algunos giros inesperados (aunque muy telegrafiados, pensándolo ahora...).
Asimov tiene una habilidad extraña, escribe de una forma aparentemente sencilla y directa, sin apenas jerga científica, y sin embargo son libros tremendamente buenos. ¿Cómo demonios lo hará? 🤔

Si la primera part, Fundació, és un llibre que trenca motlles pertot arreu, la segona trenca els que estableix la primera. No és literatura d'alta volada, Asimov no té l'escriptura d'un gran literat. Però la seva història és molt bona, segueix essent molt original a dia d'avui. I això fa que la ciència ficció pugui arribar fins on no arriba la prosa realista.
I què dir d'aquesta edició i traducció publicada per Duna llibres: una meravella! Com tots els clàssics que publiquen.

Segona part de la saga de la Fundació, presenta noves idees al voltant de la psico - història i introdueix més la Segona Fundació.
Com en la primera part, esbossa diverses històries i idees sense excessiva profunditat i les deixa per que li donis voltes.
