ROBOPSYCHOLOGIST Dr. Susan Calvin had seen it all when it came to robots. As a girl she had seen the early models -- mute and totally faithful. She joined U.S. Robots and Mechanical Men, Inc. when they began adapting Earth robots for work in space -- and Earth men for work with the strictly logical robots!
She had driven the first -- and only -- mind-reading robot out of its mind, and coaxed the childlike Brain to invent the interstellar engine.
Finally, at the end of her career, she faced the final question: who was really in charge; and who should be?
IN THESE STORIES OF THE EARLY DAYS OF ROBOTS, ISAAC ASIMOV ESTABLISHED THE THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS AND DEMONSTRATED THE ABILITIES THAT HAVE MADE HIM ONE OF THE WORLD'S LEADING SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS. --back cover
Das Buch beschäftigt sich in mehreren voneinander Unabhängigen Erzählungen mit der Entwicklung von Robotern und insbesondere mit den Widersprüchlichkeiten, die aus den drei Gesetzen der Robotik entstehen.
Als Ergänzung zu den Foundation Romanen interessant, bleibt es aber qualitativ hinter ihnen zurück.
