About This Book

Mathematician Hari Seldon predicts the collapse of the Galactic Empire and establishes a colony called the Foundation to preserve human knowledge and minimize the duration of the coming dark ages. The story follows the colony on the remote planet Terminus as it navigates political crises and social evolution over centuries using Seldon's psychohistorical plan.
