Yo, robot (bolsillo)

by Isaac Asimov, Manuel Bosch Barret (Translator)

Overview

An investigation carried out by a journalist about the trajectory of the robo-psychologist Susan Calvin gives rise to the nine stories that make up this novel. The three laws of robotics, to which Asimov will add more in later works, constitute the norms that govern behavior in the different conflicts between humans and robots. The modernity and success of this book is explained by the audacity in the composition and by the overwhelming logic in the reflections that appear about robotics. I, Robot is one of the few science fiction novels that has exceeded readership and is considered a masterpiece within the genre.
