"Asimov" prevod sa engleskog na srpski

(1920-1992) Russian-born US author and editor of science fiction and nonfiction. He published more than 400 books, including his science-fiction novels I, Robot 1950 and the Foundation trilogy 1951–53, continued in Foundation’s Edge 1983. His two-volume work The Intelligent Man’s Guide to Science 1960 gained critical acclaim.
Asimov immigrated to the US as a child. He graduated from Columbia University with a PhD 1948. Trained as a biochemist, Asimov wrote numerous nonfiction works on scientific subjects.
These include Building Blocks of the Universe 1957; Until the Sun Dies 1977, about black holes; and The Exploding Suns: The Secrets of the Supernovas 1985. His science-fiction works include short stories, and he wrote two autobiographical volumes 1981, 1982.
Asimov saw his first science-fiction story published 1939, but did not become a full-time writer until 1958, when he largely turned from fiction to popular science. His “three laws of robotics”, which became widely accepted in science fiction, first appeared in a 1941 story. They specify that a robot must not harm a human being; must obey orders from humans unless they conflict with the first law; and must preserve its own existence unless this conflicts with the first or second law.
