A very good book!
When i first got this book i was worryed about it being boring, and it wasnt. once again issac asimov has put out a great book. He not only puts in the math to tell how and why things happen in Physics he also tell in text so that those whose Trigonomety and above skill arent that great can still understand it. He goes from Falling bodies to light waves to Ions and radiation to anti-particles if you are just starting out in Physics or need some more addvanced info this is the book to read. it however is not for everyone. Some may find it very dry reading. I, however found it very fasinating, and an excelent reference in explaining the basics of Physics.

I love these books.
Every science fiction fan needs a Hugo compilation book on their shelf. Forget "Legends" and that other stuff, which is always hit and miss anyway. Go for the tried and true lovely stories that you will read again and again until you grow old, die, and are buried with them. My favorite among this group is Asimov's "Super-Hugos" compilation.... For those days when you are weary of reading that epic 700 page book, buy one of these and dabble in lovely well-written sci-fi and fantasy. It's like little French chocolates. It makes you happy, and requires no effort to enjoy.

(10 out of 10: there's just nothing bad about them).

An excellent anthology!
This book is a collection of nine short stories written by some of the finest science-fiction authors ever. The stories are: Chalice of Death by Robert Silverberg, Orphan of the Void by Lloyd Biggle, Jr., Down to the Worlds of Men by Alexei Panshin, Ministry of Disturbance by H. Beam Piper, Blind Alley by Isaac Asimov, A Planet Named Shayol by Cordwainer Smith, Diabologic by Eric Frank Russell, Fighting Philosopher by E. B. Cole, and Honorable Enemies by Poul Anderson.

All of the stories are excellent read, which I say with no exaggeration. In Particular, Ministry of Disturbance and Blind Alley are among of the best short stories I have ever read. However, the gem in the crown is Diabologic. This story is outrageously funny, and a fascinating read. This is an excellent anthology!

Isaac Asimov Audio Collection
Anyone who enjoys science fiction (NOT science fantasy--science FICTION) will enjoy the works of Isaac Asimov. He writes of a future of humans as humans, and logical advances of scientific gadgets (in the 1940's he wrote of Dr. Seldon using his pocket calculator, and punching in entries; needless to say, the pocket calculator, nor even true computers didn't exist when he wrote this). His stories are pleasant, and it is easy to use your imagination when it involves human beings as we know them. They just happen to have been born in the distant future, and live lives as we understand, and Isaac Asimov works them into plots, easy to understand, and at the end you will be baffled as to why you didn't see the logical outcome he so brilliantly brought to you.
