The classic collection of robot stories from the master of the genre. One of the Voyager Classics collection, now I, Robot is a major Fox movie starring Will Smith. In these...
more...stories Isaac Asimov creates the Three Laws of Robotics and ushers in the Robot Age. When Earth is ruled by master-machines, when robots often seem more human than mankind, the Three Laws ensure that humans remain superior and the robots are kept in their rightful place. But an insane telepathic robot results from a production error; a robot assembled in space logically deduces its superiority to non-rational humanity; and when machines serve mankind rather than individual humans, the machine's idea of what is good for society may itself contravene the sacred Three Laws...Amazing and timeless robot stories from the greatest science fiction writer of all time.

THE LAWS OF ROBOTICS
Review of I, Robot - Isaac Asimov by Mauri

Disadvantages: none

Scientific, futuristic, frighteningly prophetic
Review of I, Robot - Isaac Asimov by Biogenesis

Advantages: Scientific, futuristic, frighteningly prophetic
Disadvantages: none

Asimov’s pallet crafts a world of fantasy. The scientific undertones providing a girder like realism upon which the skin of fiction is affixed. The composer, crafting his vision of art in lettering, leads us ever further into the glorious world of science fiction. As implied I would recommend any work of Isaac Asimov to the reader. But be careful the human eyelid will only stretch so far. I Robot I Robot is a series of short stories which ... Read review

A book not just for Sci Fi fans
Review of I, Robot - Isaac Asimov by hcook

Advantages: Very well written and keeps you interested
Disadvantages:

This in my opinion is one of the best collections of short stories Asimov wrote. From the beginning he introduces the 3 laws of robotics, which are a fundamental part of the collection. Although he wrote more then one book on the robots this one is very easy to get into and unlike many of the other books each chapter is a whole new story which means that you can pick the book up and put it down at any time. This book is very well written and although ... Read review
