Fourth vol. of the famous series. While the focus of the novel is on the sweep of historical change that was the focus of the trilogy, none of which were eutopian and are best characterized as early social science fiction, this volume includes a eutopia called Gaia, where the world is itself sentient. The entire planet including flora and fauna as well as the people have a group consciousness. Everything does what is needed for itself and the planet and no more. See also 1986 and 1988 Asimov.
