The writer of about 500 books in his time, Asimov wrote this classic collection of nine science fiction short stories as the first in his robot novel series. It deals with the relationships between human and robot, and the stories are interconnected with Dr. Susan Calvin, the chief robopsychologist at U.S. Robots and Mechanical Men, Inc., the major robot manufacturer company, telling them to a report, our narrator, in the 21st century. These stories all revolve around the theme of humans, robots, and the morality surrounding their interactions. This novel also contains the first instance of Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics. These laws have since set the standard for how robots are used in science fiction. Further cementing its popularity with the current generation, I, Robot, was adapted into a successful Hollywood blockbuster featuring Will Smith in 2004.
