Good to see its been released in e-, too.
Foundation's a good pick; it was one of the earliest SF volumes I read (SFBC intro deal, actually. I picked FOUNDATION, STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND, and SF HALL OF FAME Vol1. A good quick education in quality SF for a 14 year old.)
One interesting thing about Foundation: after years of turning down ever-larger advances to do a fourth Foundation volume, one of the reasons Asimov went back to tie it to the Robots universe was a deep critical review of the Trilogy" that made the point that the Second foundation crew could be considered *villains* by contemporary standards. ;-)
Which sorta explains why Asimov turned around and came up with a different "final" ending to the series.

The Science Fiction Book Club was my teenage intro to a lot of great SF.
