About Prelude to Foundation by Isaac Asimov

In 12,020 G.E., the Galactic Empire’s capital, Trantor, is home to forty billion people and a civilization of immense complexity. Emperor Cleon I holds the throne uneasily, wary of those who might bring about his fall.

Hari Seldon, a young mathematician from an Outworld, arrives on Trantor to present his theory of psychohistory, a method for predicting the future. His work draws him into the Empire’s political dangers and the fate of humanity. Listed as the sixth book in the Foundation series, this science-fiction novel suits readers interested in large-scale futures, political uncertainty, and the origins of psychohistory.
