Compilation of four American science fiction stories: Isaac Asimov's "Foundation--the Psychohistorians," Ray Bradbury's "The Martian Chronicles," Henry Kuttner's "Mimsy Were the Borogoves," and Robert... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I only wanted "Mimsy Were the Borogoves," and it did come separately on tape and even on vinyl at one time. It did not hurt to get the rest of the tapes. Foundation: The Psychohistorians is what the Foundation trilogy is all about, and for the newer Foundation books you can read the separate reviews. The Martian Chronicles is ok, but I do not want to spend time reviewing this section, as better reviews will be under the book description.
However Mimsy is a different animal. So I will say something about this. It is a small sci-fi story about a formula that allows you into an alternate universe that everyone used to have access to. The problem with getting there is that it requires a different paradigm and a formula. The paradigm requires a mindset that disappears as we get older, and the formula is in front of us if we know where to look. Another advantage is that it is read to us enthusiastically by William Shatner. They made a movie based on this story. “The Last Mimzy” (2007).
