Truly a classic. Asimov's brilliance at constructing complex and riveting political drama is perhaps rivalled only by this genre's other giant, Frank Herbert. While Herbert's dramas are epic in length, Foundation is epic in its depth amid the brevity of each of the stories that make up this book.

A great book for teenagers interested in social science. Written in 1951, before one's world view was supposed to be entirely cynical, it's a pretty easy read, and covers a vast amount of (alternate) world view.

Book One of the Fundation Series, awarded Hugo as best ever Series! A battle between good and evil in the form of knowledge and warfare.
