Pros: Original, Very Well Thought Out Tales Cons: I can't think of any.
I am writing an agreeing opinion of the one penned by greenspj, so I will not repeat his facts. I would like to add to the list of facts, however. Asimov started his Foundation series at 21 years of age. This series received a Hugo Award for...
Pros: With Arthur C. Clarke and Ray Bradbury, the preeminent science fiction writer of our generation. Cons: He's so prolific, it's hard to know where to start (Try Foundation or Robots)
Like Arthur C. Clarke, Mr. Asimov devoted his life to popularizing the science fiction genre. For that, I am forever in his debt.
On a more personal note, Asimov's first Foundation trilogy rank among the best reads of my early life. Hari...
Pros: Astonishingly readable, coming from a scientific background Cons: Some essays appear a bit dated, while others have since been cast aside as "wrong."
One of the most prolific writers on the planet, Isaac Asimov did not write only science fiction. He also wrote a number of mystery novels (yes, some of them did include some amount of science fiction) and an awful lot of non-fiction.
Pros: lots, i don't feel like retyping my whole epinion Cons: slightly slightly outdated as he started writing in what, the thirties?

Pros: Best writer of our age Cons: I still have over a hundred books of his to get... what a list that is!
Isaac Asimov was the renaissance man of our century. First noted for his science fiction, Mr. Asimov went on to write about more topics (from the Bible to Shakespeare to Mathematics to Physics and beyond) with a prose style unmatched by any author I...
Pros: Hilarious, novel concept, refreshing after all the serious books I've read by Asimov. Cons: Out of print.
It is sad that there is no category for this book at Epinions (and it's not even in the Epinions book database), because there's not a better example for Asimov's talent.
Just consider Asimov's books. Most of the time (and I'm talking about...
Pros: Scope, fluid style, landmark status Cons: none
Isaac Asimov is arguably the best known and loved science fiction writer of our time. Actually Isaac has written so many books on so many subjects it's difficult to focus on one subject but I will try.
Like other Asimov novels, the setting revolves around a few characters. The plot is essentially
about the fate that awaits the planet earth as a star named Nemesis approaches Earth. Only
several people know of this impending tragedy...
Digital, I, Robot They mustn't harm a human being, they must obey human orders, and they must protect their own existence...but only so long as that doesn't violate rul...
