This classic science fiction masterwork by Isaac Asimov weaves stories about robots, humanity, and the deep questions of existence into a novel of shocking intelligence and heart.
"A must-read for science-fiction buffs and literature enjoyers alike."-The Guardian
I, Robot, the first and most widely read book in Asimov's Robot series, forever changed the world's perception of artificial intelligence. Here are stories of robots gone mad, of mind-reading robots, and robots with a sense of humor. Of robot politicians, and robots who secretly run the world-all told with the dramatic blend of science fact and science fiction that has become Asimov's trademark.
The Three Laws of Robotics:
1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2) A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
With these three, simple directives, Isaac Asimov formulated the laws governing robots' behavior. In I, Robot, Asimov chronicles the development of the robot from its primitive origins in the present to its ultimate perfection in the not-so-distant future-a future in which humanity itself may be rendered obsolete.
"Tremendously exciting and entertaining . . . Asimov dramatizes an interesting question: How can we live with machines that, generation by generation, grow more intelligent than their creators and not eventually clash with our own invention?"-The Chicago Tribune

I did watch the movie first years ago and it was my dream to read the book. The stories are fascinating and I think very suitable for our time with all AI and robots development around. The book is the same size ans tyle as other Asimov series from Harper Voyager and make me proud owner of Sci-Fi collection part of my home library. I love design on the jackets - it’s just so beautiful. It’s not a novel but collection of short stories. Many of them has the same main characters and let us glimpse to the pre-Foundation time of the world. It’s a must read for all Sci-Fi fans!
Ein lange gesuchter Klassiker

Isaac Asimovs Science-Fiction Klassiker in einer gebundenen Ausgabe zu finden, noch dazu zu einem erschwinglichen Preis, war für mich ein Glückstreffer!
