	Foundation's Edge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Foundation's Edge is a novel by Isaac Asimov, the fourth book in the Foundation Series.
		It was written thirty years after the Foundation trilogy, in 1982, due to pressure by fans on Asimov to write another, and, according to Asimov himself, the amount of the payment offered by the publisher.
		Simultaneously, on the world of Trantor, Stor Gendibal, a young but rising intellect in the Second Foundation hierarchy, discovers a secret he reveals to the current First Speaker -- that the Seldon Plan, which the Second Foundation dilligently protects and furthers along, is controlled by an organization more powerful than the Second Foundation.

	insulating foundations
		Foundation insulation can result in lower heating requirements, and also helps in avoiding water vapor condensation problems, which is often caused by the difference in temperature between the basement interior and the earth around the foundation.
		Slab-on-grade foundations are often insulated in one of the following ways: Over the exterior of the footing/ slab edge, or, between the interior of the footing and slab.
		Install rigid insulation foamboard against the foundation from the subfloor to the plastic (or concrete slab) on the floor of the crawl space.

		Since these additions to the series were in effect forced upon the author, I was expecting a simple continuation of the intellectual battles between characters of the first foundation and its enemies or perhaps some more on the intentions of the second foundation.
		However, where at first the foundation was a force mysteriously protected by the Seldon plan, and then it was demoted in intrigue by the second foundation, now in this one both foundations are reduced to triviality by newcomers on the scene.
		FOUNDATION'S EDGE works to lead us in the direction of the true master plan.

		I liked _Foundation's Edge_ although I would agree that it doesn't reach the heights of the trilogy itself-- it has a number of weaknesses (the lame explanation of the Mule's origins, for one) and doesn't feel as important somehow.
