Archived from groups: alt>books>isaac-asimov (more info?)

Has anyone else seen these books on eBay and do they know if they are by
'our' Isaac Asimov? I do not recognise them from any of my lists of his
books, even in collaboration.

Language Network Grade 8 by A, Isaac asimov, N (2001)
Glencoe Science Voyages by A, Isaac Asimov, N (2000)

Obviously from the print dates if they are they must be re-prints.

These appear to be textbooks (also included is a third book entitled
"Glencoe Literature")
Investigating other book sites, there are several contributers listed.
Perhaps just containing articles or stories by these authors and
edited into a textbook.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Thank you for that. Anyone actually seen or read these to know if the
Asimov content is significant or not?

Greg,

Begin an Asimov fan since my child hood (too long ago), I have bought a
lot of books (mostly fiction) in Dutch and English over the years.

Do you want to share your list of Asimov books, just to see how far I am
in my Asimov collection ?

The fiction list is the one I am looking for.

Thanks,

I'm not Greg, Erik, but two good sources for complete listings of
IA's work, fiction and non-fiction, can be found at:

Ed Seiler's great Asimov site: <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.asimovonline.com" target="_blank">http://www.asimovonline.com</a>

and

Jenkins' Spoiler-Laden Guide:
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://homepage.mac.com/jhjenkins/Asimov/Asimov.html" target="_blank">http://homepage.mac.com/jhjenkins/Asimov/Asimov.html</a>

There are links to other IA sites on both pages.

It should come as no surprise

Asimov was a prolific writer of Biochemistry texts amongst others. I
remember seeing once a listing of his non-fiction books. It was longer than
his fiction list. He was emeritus professor of (Bio)chemistry somewhere.

Anyone written a good biography of him do we know?

how about _In Memory Yet Green_
and _In Joy Still Felt_
and _I. Asimov, a Memoir_
all by (you guessed it) Isaac Asimov
plus _Its Been a Good Life_ edited by Janet Asimov

there is also a lot of biographical stuff in _Opus 100_, _Opus 200_
and _Opus 300_ by (guess who?)

There are other biographies as well...
