Isaac Asimov’s Robot series – from the iconic collection I,
Robot to four classic novels – contains some of the most
influential works in the history of science fiction. Establishing
and testing the Three Laws of Robotics, they continue to shape the
understanding and design of artificial intelligence to this day.
What happens when a robot begins to question its creators? What
would be the consequences of creating a robot with a sense of
humour? Or the ability to lie? How do we truly tell the difference
between man and machine? In I, Robot, Asimov sets out the Three
Laws of Robotics – designed to protect humans from their robotic
creations – and pushes them to their limits and beyond. Following
genius robopsychologist Dr. Susan Calvin and engineers Powell and
Donovan, these short stories helped to transform artificial
intelligence from a dream into a science and changed perceptions of
robots for ever.
