For twelve thousand years, the Galactic Empire has ruled supreme. Now it is dying. Only Hari Seldon, creator of the revolutionary science of psychohistory, can see into the future- a dark age of ignorance, barbarism, and warfare that will last thirty thousand years. To preserve knowledge and save mankind, Seldon gathers the best minds in the Empire- both scientists and scholars- and brings them to a bleak planet at the edge of the Galaxy to serve as a beacon for future generations.
