    Author Isaac Asimov
    “Book Descriptions: Isaac Asimov and Martin H. Greenberg selected their favorite SF stories from the "Golden Years" of Science Fiction (1939-1963) and published them in a 25 volume set (one book for each year), an anthology collection of the greatest science fiction stories of modern times.

    Starting with the time-tested classics of 1939, Asimov brings you, year by year, those stories which have stood the test of time, which have become the masterworks on which others have built, and which will always remain jewels in the cabinet of science fiction. And of course Isaac Asimov himself, who, with collaborator Greenberg, introduces each story and tells what it meant in the rise of modern science fiction.
