Overview

From Isaac Asimov, the Hugo Award-winning Grand Master of Science Fiction, comes five decades of robot visions: thirty-four landmark stories and essays-including three rare tales-gathered together in one volume.
Meet all of Asimov's most famous creations including: Robbie, the very first robot that his imagination brought to life; Susan Calvin, the original robot psychologist; Stephen Byerley, the humanoid robot; and the famous human/robot detective team
of Lije Bailey and R. Daneel Olivaw, who have appeared in such bestselling novels as The Robots of Dawn and Robots and Empire.
Let the master himself guide you through the key moments in the fictional history of robot-human relations-from the most primitive computers and mobile machines to the first robot to become a man.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's Weekly

This collection offers 18 stories about robots as well as brief essays in which Asimov comments on robots in fiction, the Frankenstein complex, his famous Three Laws and the development of actual robots. ``The earliest tales here, written from 1940 to 1960, remain among the most-loved in the field,'' PW said. (Mar.)

Praise for Robot Visions

“The earliest tales here, written from 1940 to 1960, remain among the most-loved in the field.”—Publishers Weekly

Robot Visions proves what we have suspected for decades: that Isaac Asimov’s mind is far more creative and faster-working than any positronic brain.”—Ben Bova
