Isaac Asimov always has some hocus-pocus under his sleeves.
In this book Asimov described the intention and nature of the Second Foundation. The Second Foundation's scientist are not gods. They are highly efficient mindmasters. They are guardians and they are hated. But they understand the cause of hatred and they are forgiving. And once again, they know, great power comes with great responsibility.
I read every book two times. For the first time, I don't judge, but only feel thing the book normally let me feel. On the second time, I judge it with the eyes and ears of my own logics.
The Alchemist is a good read indeed. I read it in English. Due to translation, some literary value must be lost, but still it is amazing.
The Storytelling is really natural to Paulo Coehlo. It is also a good inventory of middle-eastern/Arabian philosophy which is compatible with todays Sufi Philosophy.
Though I am a non-believer and most of the theories here are obsolete to me, I can't deny that it was a real pleasure to read this book.
Pardon my English, I am not a native speaker.
