Isaac Asimov (1920 – 1992) was an American writer and professor. In his time, he was considered one of the "Big Three" most influential science fiction writers of his day, along with Robert A. Heinlein and Arthur C. Clarke. He wrote or edited over 500 works, including the Foundation series, the first three books of which won the Hugo Award for "Best All-Time Series" in 1966. His other major series are the Galactic Empire series, and the Robot series.
Asimov is also known for inventing terms which are now commonplace. He coined the phrase "robotics" in his 1941 story, "Liar". Also, the word psychohistory, having to do with a fictional branch of science that combines statistics, science, and history, to make predictions about the future. This concept is explored in his Foundation series.
Today's story was first published in the February 1957 issue of Infinity magazine. Extensive research did not uncover that the U.S. copyright was renewed.
And now, Let's Get Together, by Isaac Asimov.
