BIBLIOGRAPHY
Alaric Thain’s History of the 21st Century does not include a bibliography, nor formal citations for the works to which it refers. Remember that it was written for readers in the 29th century, who can simply ask Artie for details about referenced authors. For those who are interested in the works referred to in the book and who are more at ease with typical bibliographies, we offer the following
Asimov, Isaac
1950 I, Robot. Gnome Press.
Note: Alaric Thain was a great fan of Asimov’s and would undoubtedly have suggested any of his books. This is included because of the reference to it with respect to Galit Shavitz’s reasoning with respect to Artie’s guiding principles.
