Product Description:
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 these three, simple directives, Isaac 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 and science fiction that has become Asmiov's trademark.

Isaac Asmiov's classic novel about the decline and fall of Solaria. Gladia Delmarre's homeworld, the Spacer planet Solaria, has been abandoned - by its human population. Countless robots remain there. And when traders from Settler worlds attempt to salvage them, the robots of Solaria turn to killing...in defiance of the Three Laws of Robotics. Pax Robotica Long ago, Gladia's robots Daneel and Giskard played a vital role in opening the worlds beyond the Solar system to Settlers from Earth. Now the conscience-stricken robots are faced with an even greater challenge. Either the sacred Three Laws of Robotics are in ruins - or a new, superior Law must be established to bring peace to the galaxy. With Madam Gladia and D.G. Baley - the captain of the Settler traders and a descendant of the robots' friend Elijah Baley - Daneel and Giskard travel to the robot stronghold of Solaria...where they uncover a sinister Spacer plot to destroy Earth itself. |

In Robots and Aliens, the late science fiction genius Isaac Asimov put forth a challenge to a talented group of science fiction writers: What would happen if the robots of Asimov's universe were to meet alien races? Would the Three Laws of Robotics that protect both humans and robots still apply when dealing with a species that is neither...? INTRUDER
Derec Avery has at last returned to the original Robot City, only to discover that it has been reprogrammed in ways that do not make sense. Together with his companion, Ariel, and his father, he must find and defeat the Watchful Eye, the strange force that has bent the city to its own ends. Can the trio solve the new mystery of Robot City before it comes tumbling down around them? ALLIANCE
Robot City has been restored, but can it last? Three shape-changing, renegade robots threaten to destroy the city, but are they really capable of disobeying the Three Laws? Derec and Ariel must convince the renegades that an alliance, not a robot revolution, is in their best interest -- but will they succeed? The futures of mankind and robotkind wait for the answers! |
