Overview
Golan Trevize, exconsejero de la Primera Fundación, debe determinar el futuro del desarrollo galáctico. Junto al profesor Janov Pelorat, cruzará la galaxia en busca del planeta ancestral de la humanidad. Sin embargo, en los mundos situados más allá de la influencia de la Fundación, donde pronunciar la palabra «Tierra» es tabú, la superstición dificulta su búsqueda. Así pues, completará una odisea llena de peligros, de la que dependerá el destino del Imperio y de la propia civilización.
«Una de las imaginaciones más fecundas de la ciencia ficción». —The Daily Telegraph
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The fifth novel in Isaac Asimov’s classic science-fiction masterpiece, the Foundation series
Golan Trevize, former Councilman of the First Foundation, has chosen the future, and it is Gaia. A superorganism, Gaia is a holistic planet with a common consciousness so intensely united that every dewdrop, every pebble, every being, can speak for all—and feel for all. It is a realm in which privacy is not only undesirable, it is incomprehensible.
But is it the right choice for the destiny of mankind? While Trevize feels it is, that is not enough. He must know.
Trevize believes the answer lies at the site of humanity’s roots: fabled Earth . . . if it still exists. For no one is sure where the planet of Gaia’s first settlers is to be found in the immense wilderness of the Galaxy. Nor can anyone explain why no record of Earth has been preserved, no mention of it made anywhere in Gaia’s vast world-memory. It is an enigma Trevize is determined to resolve, and a quest he is determined to undertake, at any cost.
