This is a weak collection on the whole. Few of the stories in the collection are memorable at all, and many of those that are (such as the title story, "Lest We Remember", "The Last Answer", and "Found!"), I don’t particularly like, although Asimov did.

(Regarding the title story, Asimov liked it because it was a vicious attack on what he considered to be the forces of superstition and ignorance which were raising their ugly heads again in the United States during the presidency of Ronald Regan, whom he loathed—specifically the Moral Majority. As a political statement, and as an insight into Asimov’s thinking, the story may have some merit. As a story, it has little.)

On the other hand, we also have "Good Taste", which I love, and "Death of a Foy", which, despite everything, does bring a smile to my lips, and the former in particular helps enormously to redeem the collection in my estimation. Still, since both are available elsewhere in Asimov anthologies, there is little reason to own this one except as part of a complete collection.
