Àííîòàöèÿ: The following science fiction stories take place in a future age of technological advances that may be difficult for us even to imagine. Have these technological advances that may  be difficult for us even to imagine. Have these technological advances always been a blessing?

Àííîòàöèÿ: Only a few know the terrifying truth—an outcast Earth scientist, a rebellious alien inhabitant of a dying planet, a lunar-born human intuitionist who senses the imminent annihilation of the Sun. They know the truth—but who will listen? They have foreseen the cost of abundant energy—but who will believe? These few beings, human and alien, hold the key to the Earth's survival.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Isaac Asimov is curious about nearly everything, and he has made it his business to share whatever he learns with us-there are few people as good at it as he is. ONLY A TRILLION is only one example of the range of his talents and the depth of his knowlrdge.These twelve essays are on such diverse subjects as life on other planets, the famous Thiotimoline-and The Goose That Laid The Golden Eggs...but you're just going to have to buy this book to find out what he knows about that

Àííîòàöèÿ: Una formula nuova, volta ad unire avventura, fantascienza e scienza: su questa base nasce la nostra nuova collana, il cui primo volume e siglato da due grossi nomi: Isaac Asimov e Peter Kolosimo.

Àííîòàöèÿ: "Marooned Off Vesta', the first fiction Asimov ever published, is a prime example of the versatility of his imagination. Three men in a spaceship only three hundred miles from Vesta have no way to reach it. His well-known "Nightfall' probes the reactions of a planet to the dakness of night which falls only once in two thousand years. And Asimov's answer to "The Last Question" is so startling that it will never be forgotten. Other stories in this collection include: 'C-Chute','The Martian Way', 'The Deep', 'The Fun They Had', 'The Dead Past', 'The Dying Night', 'Anniversary', 'The Billiard Ball', and 'Mirror Image'

Àííîòàöèÿ: THE COMPLETE ROBOT is the definitive anthology of Asimov's stunning visions of a robotic future... In these stories, Isaac Asimov creates the Three Laws of Robotics and ushers in the Robot Age: when Earth is ruled by master-machines and when robots are more human than mankind. As well as TN-3 (Tony), AL-76 and other robots, the stories feature the staff of US Robots and Mechanical Men Inc., and in particular the chief robot-psychologist, the steely Dr Susan Calvin who is in many ways more robot-like than her subjects. THE COMPLETE ROBOT is the ultimate collection of timeless, amazing and amusing robot stories from the greatest science fiction writer of all time, offering golden insights into robot thought processes. Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics were programmed into real computers thirty years ago at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology - with surprising results. Readers of today still have many surprises in store...
