Description: Most SF ideas get invented once and reused a thousand times: the starship, the robot, the time machine. One of the rare exceptions was Asimov's psychohistory, the central concept of his classic Foundation trilogy, dating back to the 1940s. Now, Kingsbury has taken psychohistory off the shelf and, with a story set in the 761st century, has given us a psychohistory for the 21st. The result is a loving homage to Asimov and a dialogue with him -- a triumph of galactically-scaled SF that is destined to be recognized as a classic in its own right.

Eron Osa had faced the ultimate penalty. Not death, but the removal of his fam. Without the augmentation of his brain by his electronic familiar, he can barely function amidst the bewildering complexities of everyday 761st century life on Splendid Wisdom. Here, on the capital world of the Milky Way in the 14,810th year of the Galactic Era, 1,653 years after the founding of the Second Empire, everyone from the meanest citizen to the ruling Pscholars has depended upon a fam since childhood. The loss of Eron's fam means the loss of his memories and his professional expertise. He doesn't even know what his profession had been. The crime he committed must have been terrible indeed to warrant such a dreadful punishment. If only he could remember what it was! Psychohistorical Crisis is the best Foundation novel Asimov never wrote.
