Summary: The origin of the robot
Review: Okay, I have to admit that this is a important work in the genre of science fiction. Asmimov introduces us to the concept of robots and to the robot laws. I don't know what it was, but some of the stories I enjoyed and some I found a bit boring. Overall I felt the book was uneven, but worth the read because of it's historical significance in the genre.

Summary: This work will endure for centuries
Review: Today, I give a copy to a friend who never read it. I think I first read "I, Robot" about 40 years ago and then every 15 years since. As our civilization relies increasingly on automatic machines, "I, Robot" becomes yet more profound. Any person who wants to read great works of western civilization must read Dostoevsky's "Notes From Underground", and Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", and Twain's "Huckleberry Finn", and Machiavelli's "The Prince", and Asimov's "I, Robot".

Summary: A thought provoking piece of science
Review: I, Robot is governed around three laws that perpetuate the plot1. A robot may not injure a human or through inaction let a human come to harm 2. A robot must obey all orders given to it, unless the order conflicts with the first law 3.A robot mus protect itself from harm unless this conflicts with the first and second laws. From this premise comes 9 wonderfully woven tales of adventure, science, and human behavior. For not only does Asimov study the existence and possibilties of Robots, but their individual actions and thoughts pararlell human actions in many different ways. In a sense it is a testatment of the power of man over time, a different view of the future, but also a view into how people act on a whole no matter the time period.

Summary: Truly a masterpiece
Review: Asimov outdid himself with this book. I found it very interesting that the scene shifts from an interview to the memories of a retiring mathmatician about how robots have evolved. This book also has one of my favorite short stories by Asimov as one of the chapters. The short story is entitled: "Little Lost Robot" from his collection of short stories called Robot Dreams. It is also very interesting how Asimov showed evolution of robots even though they are not organic. . .

Summary: IT IS Sci-Fiction....
Review: Just in case, 'cause there are some people who don't know what it is all about!! Asimov WAS (again, just in case) a great Sci-Fi writer... I'm not afraid of comparing him with Jules Verne, but I guess there is some PEOPLE who should say Jules Verne IS outdated. Verne, as Asimov, WROTE something about some possible future.... Was Verne beyond his time? Maybe, but don't forget that "I, Robot" is a collection of Asimov's tales that were writing some years before, not this year, as SOMEONE seems to think. However, the story (maybe history of the future) that Asimov tells us is a great total of dreams, beliefs, and hopes about humanity. I would like to tell you all, about ever single thing over those (I meant Robot's collection) books, but I really think it is better that you read them. But what I can tell you is that the way that Asimov related the Robot's saga and The Foundation saga is beautifull, however, he doesn't mixed them. I, Robot.... and all the colletion is a must-read.

Summary: Dissapointing
Review: This book is a collection of short stories about robots. They are put in order from the first robots to the more complex ones. However, the plots and the stories mainly center in people trying to fix glitches based on the first three robotic laws. The robots themselves, act like humans on one side, on the other side, have characteristics that can't compare with computers today, for example, a robot called "The Brain" took 17 days in feeding the information from like 50 encyclopedias, thing that with today's technology takes about 2 minutes. All in all, I found Asimov's notions and assumptions about robotics, quite outdated.

Summary: The book that launched a millions minds ...
Review: Without 'I, Robot' would there have really been any truely entertaining robot oriented science fiction? Asimov was one of the few writers who had enough grounded realism to convincingly portray mankind coping with his own inventions as they mature and change the function of society. Daringly, he used a woman as the main influence and creative force. Unlike the trashy, yet popular, sci-fi writing we are given the experince of logic coexisting with emotion, structure facing decay, and the future influence created from current events within the fictional timeline. Kudos to all those who can enjoy and value this collection of short stories despite the unpolished presentation of ideas. If it weren't for these stories, all robots would be mere mindless creatures on continuous rampage...which is nearly as tedious as the current 'soulful human' robots sapily depicted in the more recent sci-fi ramblings.

Summary: An excelent collection of stories
Review: This book brings most of Asimov's fantastic imagination and vision of the future. It is a collections of robot stories that he writted in separeted and mended all together, forming a great book. The stories are trully fascinating.
