Se plaçant en chroniqueur lucide, Asimov, au moyen d'anecdotes savoureuses et d'apartés, relie la grande histoire, celle des batailles et des empereurs, à la « petite », celle du quotidien et des masses anonymes.

LPodría decirse que Isaac Asimov, el mayor escritor de ciencia ficción que ha existido, poseía una de las mentes más brillantes y creativas del siglo XX. Su estilo cuidado y accesible, y sus intereses de largo alcance en temas que van desde la ciencia al humor, pasando por la historia, le valieron el apodo de «El gran narrador». Esta es la historia del genio paradójico que escribió sobre viajes a las estrellas y se negó a volar en avión; que imaginó universos extraterrestres y vastas civilizaciones galácticas mientras se quedaba en casa entre páginas.

From Heinlein's thought-provoking "Searchlight" and Clarke's dreamy "Reverie", to Asimov's ingenious "Super-Neutron", Bradbury's chilling "Zero Hour", and Zelazny's poetic masterpiece "A Rose for Ecclesiastes", each story explores deep questions of technology, humanity, and the unknown. Carefully curated to represent both iconic tales and lesser-known gems, this volume offers something for every science fiction reader—whether a newcomer or a lifelong fan.
