A brilliant scientist plots the course of future cosmic history — to save earth's galaxy from destruction!
The Decline and Fall of The First Galactic Empire! Eon of Crisis —
It happened this way:
In the distant future, Man spread to a million worlds circling the blazing suns of the Milky Way —
Earthmen and aliens formed vast units, seething with old lusts and new passions ... and the pattern of history repeated itself —
The mighty culture of this First Galactic Empire was now crumbling into anarchy and decay!
For this Eon of Crisis, Hari Seldon, famous psycho-historian, having foreseen the 30,000 years of interstellar barbarism that would follow, established the Second Foundation — a secret society of scientists.
Their aim: to save the universe — if need be at the cost of their own lives!

Isaac Asimov's Great Science-Fiction Novel —
The mathematics of space, time and — destruction!
Amidst the barbaric ruins of the 1st Empire, Dr. Seldon, last of the great philosopher-scientists, planned the rebirth of Galactic culture in a 2nd scientifically controlled Empire — and formed the secret 2nd Foundation to direct the historical course of the Cosmos.
Here is a breathtaking novel of the far future — of mighty movements clashing over the destiny of the Universe ... of scientists, saboteurs, spies — and of THE MUTANT, the fantastic man whose single goal was to destroy the 2nd Foundation and become absolute master of mankind!
