Foundation, Isaac Asimov This in a sense has been a prophetic book: a story about technology and psychology. Asimov was surely a skilled writer and his writings always fascinated me for the kind of introspection exhibited, together with a positive outlook of the future of technology. Foundation is the first book I've ever read, but the whole of Asimov's universe is something incredible to dive into, all tying into one, with questions about what really means to be alive, human, and how entire civilizations have common traits when viewed through the eyes of history.
