Hi,
i haven't actually read the book. Found it a bit dry, think i will give it another chance.
the little nuggets really make the book special
i miss sagan. asimov too. among other things, there was such a wonderful sense of humanity in their works. contact i read just before he passed away...its one of the few books i re-read every year or so.regards,

***their was such a wonderful sense of humanity...***Asimov humanized robots by endowing them with a moral code of conduct, i.e.,
The Three Laws of Robotics. - AH

I recommend "Asimov's Galaxy: Reflections On Science Fiction" - 1989
Doubleday; if you haven't already read it. It's excellent -
a collection of 66 essays which appeared as editorials in Issac
Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine from August 1981 to Mid-December
1985. - AH
