"Palumbo and Sullivan's major new reference work book contains 1,000 selected excerpts from the Encyclopedia, identifying and describing all of the characters, locales, artifacts, concepts and institutions in Asimov's metaseries. The authors argue that Asimov successfully integrates the three series through the retroactive use of chaos theory, the underlying principle behind both psychohistory and Three Laws of Robotics"--

In this book, author Donald E. Palumbo presents readers with a comprehensive examination of the work of science fiction author Isaac Asimov, all of his characters, locales, artifacts, concepts, and the institutions he employed in the metaseries made up of the short stories in I, Robot, his Foundation series of novels, his Robot series of novels, and his Galactic Empire series of novels. Following a lengthy introduction of the works of the metaseries and an examination of how they fit together, the remainder of the book is organized encyclopedically. The author is a faculty member of East Carolina University in North Carolina. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
