Based in the past, and set in the future, "Foundation" reflects Asimov's limitless curiosity, and his abilty to weave all his knowledge into an entertaining and understandable story. Although the stories were written as a series, rather than a novel, they read well as one publication.
The stories are based, some closely and others more loosely, on the decline of the Roman Empire, with the resultant losses of economic prosperity, technological skill and knowledge.
Isaac Asimov's foundation series (in its original trilogy form) is perhaps the greatest science fiction trilogy ever written (it's a toss up with the first three Dune novels). "Foundation" is all that good science fiction should be: lean, mean and awesome in scope. If you have not read this series you need to, it's a landmark in science fiction writing and still hugely entertaining.
