This collection offers 18 stories about robots as well as brief essays in which Asimov comments on robots in fiction, the Frankenstein complex, his famous Three Laws and the development of actual robots. ``The earliest tales here, written from 1940 to 1960, remain among the most-loved in the field,'' PW said.

What People Are Saying

Piers Anthony
I've been partial to robots ever since reading Little Lost Robot. Now at last that lost robot of Asimov's is found in this volume with all its family, context, and philosophy. The robots do have something to teach the living folk, if only we would learn.

Paul Anderson
Any Asimov book is a treat, and Robot Visions adds to the pleasure by blending classic stories with new material, both fiction and fact, that puts the whole theme together in a larger context.

Ben Bova
Robot Visions proves what we have suspected for decades; that Isaac Asimov's mind is far more creative and faster-working than any positronic brain.
