On the Way to the Academy Foundation Series, Galactic History Cycle
While Professor Hari Seldon tries to perfect his revolutionary theory of psychohistory and secure humanity's place among the stars, the great Galactic Empire is on the brink of apocalyptic collapse. Whoever can control Seldon will control psychohistory and, along with...
it, the future of the Galaxy. This is claimed by Emperor Cleon I, demagogic politicians, and the military. In his final act of service to humanity, Hari Seldon must somehow save the work of his life from their hands and find the true successors. The search begins with a dream of the Academy. «The novel shows Asimov himself, embodied in Seldon. The immense intellect and interest of the psychohistorian, his concern for the future of science in times of decadence, his disappointment in the face of death — all this sounds particularly sharp and true». — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY «An engaging portrait of a unique individual against the backdrop of the rise and fall of the Galactic Empire». — LIBRARY JOURNAL «A touching farewell from a great science fiction writer». — KIRKUS REVIEWS
