	The Foundation Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hari Seldon's holographic image, pictured on a paperback edition of Foundation, appears at various times in the First Foundation's history, to guide it through the social and economic crises that befall it.
		The premise of the series is that mathematician Hari Seldon has spent his life developing a branch of mathematics known as psychohistory, a concept devised by Asimov and his editor John W. Campbell.
		Hari Seldon's plan is often treated as an inevitable mechanism of society, a vast mindless mob mentality of trillions of humans across the galaxy, and many in the series struggle against it only to fail.

		If Hari Seldon is the father of psychohistory, Wanda Seldon could be considered the mother of the Second Foundation.
		When she was just a teenager Hari Seldon recognised that she possessed a rare mentallic ability; a quality essential for the founding of the Second Foundation.
		It was Wanda's dream of "lemonade death" as a seven year-old that led Dors Venabili to uncover the conspiracy against Hari Seldon and avert the second assassination attempt on his life.

	Hari Seldon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hari Seldon is the intellectual hero of Isaac Asimov's Foundation Series.
		Using psychohistory, Seldon found the right time and place to set up a new society, one that would replace the collapsing Galactic Empire by sheer force of social pressure, over a thousand-year time span.
		At first, Seldon has no idea how this could be done in practice, and he is fairly confident that no one could actually fulfill the possibility.

		Hari Seldon was the greatest mathematician in human history; Hari Seldon found the key to control history.
		And with this science, Hari Seldon predicted the fall of the Galactic Empire and the horrors of a three millennium long Dark Age, wherein majority of human knowledge would be lost, splintering the Galaxy into a disconnected mass of technologically inept worlds.
		Hari Seldon used this knowledge to create the Foundation, a world devoted to upholding science and technology and human history, keeping it safe in order to rekindle the glorious flames of the Old Empire.

	The Second Foundation Series - Kaedrin's Guide to Isaac Asimov
		Seldon is continuing to study psychohistory, but he is thrust into the unfriendly world of galactic politics when the current Emporer appoints him as first minister of the Galactic Empire.
		Beneford's style is annoying and needlessly excessive, often pursuing annoying subplots (such as when Seldon and his wife flee to a primitive planet where they occupy the minds of humbler primate creatures.) or science fiction for the sake of science fiction (see the same example as the annoying subplot).
		This time around, Seldon is on trial for treason while R. Daneel Olivaw attempts to guide the creation of one of the Foundation's first projects, all the while dealing with possible corruption among his own robotic staff.

		That is a 'might,' however, Seldon, in his just-finished appearance as a five-century-old simulacrum, had calmly placed the probability of remaining on Terminus at 87.2 percent.
