Isaac Asimov

One of the most prolific writers of all time, Isaac Asimov wrote or edited more than 500 books during his career. In addition to his trailblazing work in science fiction, Asimov has been published in nine of the ten major categories of the Dewey Decimal System, a testament to his breadth of knowledge and interests. Asimov's life's work was to educate and pique the reader's curiosity with science, and to prompt thought about how our current actions have an impact on what the future will bring.

Authors Teens Love series. These biographies tell about the lives and works of popular authors. The main texts are generally bland; however, the appended short interviews or collections of quotes do shed some light on the minds of those who make a living at their craft and will perhaps inspire would-be teen writers. Some photographs and pull-quotes help break up the pages. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind., The Horn Book Guide Fall 2009
