Asimov's science fiction didn't interest me. However his books on mathematics and physics were gems.

Asimov's book on algebra saved my bacon in high school. Sorry to hear he died in such a horrible manner.

Did you ever read, "It's Only a Trillion"?
It almost made my head explode one warm Summer afternoon.

Asimov was arguably the greatest science fiction writer of all time, closely followed by Robert Heinlein and Arthur C. Clarke
