Summary: Excellent
Review: I had to write a research paper on Asimov, Bradbury and scifi. Obviously the first two were easy enough (once I actually figured out what I was doing) but the last topic was a bit more difficult. I mean, you can't really think indepentently on a research paper. Don't ask me why, but always have to rely on someone else's opinion. I could really seem to find anything until I came upon this in my school library. Not only did I find the information I needed, but I found all of Asimov's essays to be fascinating. I wish he was still alive because I found his views on fantasy to be somewhat conflicting with mine (I'm a huge fantasy fan) but alas, I found out to my dismay he's been dead for quite awhile. Oh well, go figure. But I would definetly recomment this book--

Summary: Collection of Essays
Review: This book is s collection of essays from "Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine" by the good Doctor. Normally they relate to science fiction, but Asimov also covers some other topics, normally science related when they are not directly related to SF. It is a good collection of essays. It gives some good commentary about the field by one of its Grand Masters. Nice book.
