Isaac Asimov: The Foundation of Science Fiction
Harvard's George C. Simpson called the late Isaac Asimov "one of our natural wonders and national resources, " for his hundreds of nonfiction works on science, mathematics, history, and literature. Asimov, however, is best known as a science fiction writer. This second edition, Isaac Asimov: The Foundations of Science Fiction, updates and expands science fiction scholar James Gunn's definitive, Hugo Award-winning critical volume about Asimov and his contributions to the science fiction genre.
A concluding chapter analyzes Asimov's best-sellers. Included is a detailed interview Jim had with Isaac talking about his work. Those interested in Asimov and science fiction will want Gunn's study, with its insider's look at the most prolific author of the twentieth century, the chronology, selected list of critical works, bibliography, and candid interview. Note that while the ebook is available from ReAnimus Press, the paperback is available from another publisher.
This entry is included for completeness as part of the James Gunn Library.
