Je tomu už více než sedmdesát let od doby, kdy velmistr SF žánru Isaac Asimov začal budovat vesmír svého celosvětově úspěšného cyklu Nadace. Od té doby se miliony čtenářů nechaly fascinovat poutavým příběhem, jenž přesáhl tisíce let budoucího vývoje lidstva a zavedl je na desítky cizích světů. Román A zrodí se Nadace byl dokončen těsně před autorovou smrtí jako sedmá, závěrečná část románové ságy, která získala věhlasnou žánrovou cenu Hugo jako Nejlepší science fi ction série všech dob. V předchozích svazcích byl Hari Seldon, geniální zakladatel Nadace, pouhou historickou postavou. Návratem do dob jeho života vyplnil Asimov důležitou chybějící část svého epického příběhu. Autor se netajil tím, že postavu Hariho Seldona vytvořil jako vlastní alter ego, a tak je román ještě dojemnější tím, že v něm Asimov Seldonovou smrtí uzavřel celý cyklus jen krátce před svou vlastní. Vstupme tedy posedmé a naposledy do světa Nadace a poznejme dosud utajované skutečnosti nadaného matematika, jenž se snažil zachránit lidstvo před neodvolatelně se blížící dobou temna.

Jednu z klasických antologií Isaaka Asimova lze po více než čtvrt století od prvního vydání označit za "paleofuturistickou", protože co se v našem světě mění rychleji než počítače a vše kolem nich? Povídky v tomto souboru napsali Robert Silverberg, Joe Gores, Edward Wellen, Edward Hoch, Gordon R. Dickson, Stan Dryer, J. T. Mcintosh, Poul Anderson a sám Isaac Asimov. Jelikož jsou to příběhy především humoristické, nijak nezestárly, a navíc se dá říct, že tyhle historky o neutuchajících lidských snahách využít a zneužít počítače k vlastním záměrům získaly časem roztomilou patinu.

Mass polarization is one of the defining features of politics in the twenty-first century, but efforts to understand its causes and effects are often hindered by empirical challenges related to measurement and data availability. To address these challenges and provide a common standard of analysis for researchers, this Element presents the Polarization in Comparative Attitudes Project (PolarCAP). PolarCAP clearly defines polarization as a property of group relations and uses a Bayesian measurement model to estimate smooth panels of ideological and affective polarization across ninety-two countries and forty-nine years. The author uses these data to provide a descriptive account of mass polarization across time and space. They further show how PolarCAP facilitates substantive inference by applying it to three sets of variables often hypothesized as causes or consequences of polarization: institutional design, economic crisis, and democracy. Open-source software makes PolarCAP easily accessible to scholars and practitioners.

Sbírka Neznámý Asimov zahrnuje sedmadvacet povídek z let 1939 až 1949, které byly do té doby publikovány pouze v časopisech. Naleznete v ní úplně první autorovy vydané práce doprovázené komentáři o tom, jak povídky vznikaly a jak složité je bylo prodat do některého ze žánrových časopisů. Neznámý Asimov je tak nejen skvělou sondou do doby, kdy vznikala legenda sci-fi, ale i dech beroucím svědectvím o době, kdy panoval Zlatý věk tohoto žánru a začínaly publikovat jeho největší hvězdy.
