Eng 102 Asimov Readings

All of the short stories for the class are written by Isaac Asimov, and can be found on the Scribd website listed in the syllabus, or through the following link: http://www.scribd.com/doc/32973713/Isaac-Asimov. Now, as this is a large book scanned into a pdf file on scribd, it will take some time to download to your computer, and scribd is not the fastest of websites in the first place. You do have two alternatives when it comes to the story as follows:

1) Buy the anthology I listed on the syllabus and showed you on the first day of class. There should be a few copies at local bookstores (not school textbook bookstores) available without the need to order more.

2) You can also find the Asimov readings in the class GoogleDocs folder. The file is called Isaac Asimov.pdf, or you can click the following link to be taken straight to it: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B5SpfaKFzmqAOTdhYTM5OTQtMjY0Mi00ZTk2LTgxOWUtNDdkNzZkZjg5ZjI3&sort=name&layout=list&pid=0B5SpfaKFzmqANDE0MDMzNDQtZmM0OS00ZDMwLThmNDItYTdjNTdmOTA4NzNi&cindex=5 Bear in mind the file is still fairly large, and might take some time to download. Use the page numbers found in the syllabus (or in the Google Calendar) to find the story you need.

Please try and bring copies of the story with you to class as you may need to reference it during class discussions. Please do not try and print out the whole book; print only those pages you need.
