"Isaac Asimov was an imaginative and gifted storyteller and one of this century's most versatile, prolific and celebrated writers of science fiction and fact. Mr. Asimov was author of more than 320 books, plus scores of short stories and nonfiction articles published in journals and magazines, and his total literary output is said to have been more than 20 million words in print. A biochemist by training, he was a master at translating complicated scientific facts and principles into simple everyday prose. His work included not only science fiction stories of mystery and adventure, but also medical texts; science books for the general public on topics ranging from the nature of carbon to the genetic code; astronomy; mathematics; humor and satire; literary studies; and books about Greek, Roman and biblical history."-Washington Post Obit.
