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\u2014all told with the dramatic blend of science fact and science fiction that has become Asmiov\u2019s trademark.<\/b><\/p>\n
The three laws of Robotics:<\/p>\n
1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
\n2) A robot must obey orders given\u00a0to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
\n3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.<\/p>\n
With these three, simple directives, Isaac Asimov changed our perception of robots forever when he formulated the laws governing their behavior. In\u00a0I, Robot,<\/i>\u00a0Asimov 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\u2014a future in which humanity itself may be rendered obsolete.<\/p>\n
