โฆ Synopsis
In the late 1940s and early 1950s Isaac Asimov found a home on the pages of the science-fiction magazines Astounding and Super-Science Stories. World War II had just ended and the world was obsessed with air combat and the role of technology in society. Asimov s stories reflected the concerns over the danger of technology but they also humanized robots, indicating that it is not technology that is evil but the way it is sometimes abused. His stories were so successful that in 1950 nine of his best short stories were selected for publication as the book I, Robot. In this book you get such greats as:
- Catch That Rabbit
- Runaround
- The Evitable Conflict
- Robbie
These classics revolutionized science fiction, and just a few years later, in 1957, Asimov s birth country would forever change history by launching the world s first artificial satellite, Sputnik.
If you like this book, you may also enjoy Asimov s full-length features_The Caves of Steel_ and The Naked Sun, also available in eBook format.
