Robot short stories

I, Robot

I, robot
Bok av Isaac Asimov
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 givein 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 this, Asimov changed our perception of robots forever when he formulated the laws governing their behavior. In I, Robot, Asimov chronicles the development of the robot through a series of interlinked stories: 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. Here are stories of robots gone mad, of mind-read 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 & science fiction that became Asmiov's trademark.
Jag älskar den här boken! Novellerna följs åt på ett sätt så att historierna vävs ihop och det ändå känns som en väl sammanhållen roman.
Välskriven, med en underfundig, lite torr humor, har denna bok seglat upp på min egen topplista. På vägen har den dessutom helt ändrat min syn på robotar, och från att ha varit helt ointresserad och uttråkad av allt som haft med robotar och teknik att göra önskar jag nu att jag hade haft min egen Robbie under uppväxten...
