"I remember reading Isaac Asimov for the first time when I was 10 and thinking, I didn’t realize writers were allowed to do that!"
— Derek Thompson, staff writer at The Atlantic Magazine

         Isaac Asimov [1920-1992] was one of the giants of science fiction literature, as well as one of the
most prolific: he wrote 470 books, while working as a professor of biochemistry at Boston University Medical School.
