Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Foundation is a collection of five Foundation Series stories by Isaac Asimov, edited into a cohesive Novel for Gnome Press publication in 1951. Reprinted many times since, Ace Books used the title The 1,000 Year Plan for their abridged printings.These first few stories establish the internal and external conflicts of Terminus tend to occur simultaneously. Wise enough leaders will deliberately manipulate one faction or another to ensure that both happen at near enough the same day because each "Seldon Crisis" must be solved by answering both problems at the same time.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Foundation chapters: "The Psychohistorians" (first publication) "The Encyclopedists" "The Mayors" "The Traders" "The Merchant Princes"

Billed Above the Title: The French translation, published by Gallimard in 1957, includes Dr Asimov's name above the title in much smaller font. The Ace Books 1962 edition of The 1,000 Year Plan (red cover) places Dr Asimov's name above the title, in slightly smaller font. The older blue covers included his name at the bottom left of the cover instead. The Panther editions consistently published Dr Asimov's name above the title, ranging from "same size" to "three times the size". The Del Rey cover from 1983 makes "Isaac" three times as large as the title, and "Asimov" twice as large again.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

Advertising by Association: The 1960 Panther edition points out that Dr Asimov also wrote The Naked Sun.
