By Forrest, Santa Monica, CA

"Rather than another literary interpretation of The Bard's work, Asimov's essays focus on the historical, religious, and cultural aspects. They provide depth into why different gods might be called upon at particular times, the history surrounding the interactions of two geopolitical entities, etc."
