ISAAC ASIMOV THE COMPLETE STORIES Volume 2

For over 50 years, Isaac Asimov has been transforming the face of science fiction with star-blazing stories of time and space.

A professor invents a time machine and goes back to the past to discover what really happened to the dinosaurs.

His novels and stories have made the Good Doctor's name a household word, and many of them have inspired research which has led to breakthroughs in robotics and other fields of scientific investigation.

He was a shoo-in for Mayor-until someone started spreading the rumor that he was a robot, not a man.

With hundreds of short stories in print, it's not easy for Isaac Asimov's innumerable devoted fans to keep track of all his work.

It was a freshman hazing the humans would never forget, complete with what might be a one-way space flight to a world peopled by savages.

So Doubleday has come up with a way of insuring that readers do not miss even one of the master's inventions-by consolidating all of them into a definitive multivolume set.

Can an ordinary monkey recreate the works of Shakespeare —or a science fiction writer's latest masterpiece?

This second volume in the series includes 40 polished gems gathered together from a wide variety of sources.

The Jovians had sworn to destroy the human race-as soon as they found a way to escape the prison of their own atmosphere.

Among them you'll find the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning "The Bicentennial Man," as well as classic tales of robots and the celebrated robopsychologist Susan Calvin, stories of First Contacts with alien civilizations, and much more of the quintessential Asimov.”
