The famous author's self-review of snippets from his first 100 books... not among his best, which began to look ever more churned-out in his later years, during which he wrote hundreds more. ( ) At one time, I had all but 5 of the first 100 books Isaac Asimov ever wrote. Then I got distracted by college, work, family obligations...the usual case of Life. I still have those 95 books. This book takes selected quotes from each of those first hundred and intersperses them with biographical anecdotes. I would often recommend it to friends who had never read any of Asimov's work as a starter book. It is true that his unadorned writing style is not to everybody's taste, but I always enjoyed his clear, concise writing in both fiction and nonfiction. If you can find a copy of this book, I still recommend it. Asimov's 100th book (eventually he would write over 500), this one is a collection of excerpts from prior books of essays on a variety of topics, including all fields of science and mathematics, the Bible, humor and word origins. Asimov was a true renaissance man, fascinated with all fields of knowledge, and gifted in the ability to transmit this knowledge on paper so as to infect the average reader with this fascination. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
