The foundation series, written by Isaac Asimov, has been an inspiratory work which parrallels human imagination. The foundation is a large web of worlds that are ideally the subjects of »psychohistory«, that causality invented by one man, Hari Seldon, and proliferated into the cosmos along with many other conditional situations. The greatest propaganda machine ever invented, the »encyclopedia galactica«, does not appear to have narrative qualities, but it seems to coalesce along the story line in a way which gives the stories an outside influence which makes the series so readable and yet very objective in their scope. The foundation of this series, one might deduce, seems to be the struggle and survivability of the human spirit inside of an unrelenting sea of cuniform defiance.
