The Development of the Robot

Ich habe angefangen mal wieder I, Robot zu lesen. Diesmal auf Englisch. Lässt sich sehr gut verstehen-und die Geschichte ist ja bekanntlich großartig.

The three laws of Robotics: 1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm 2) A robot must obey orders givein to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. With this, Asimov changed our perception of robots forever when he formulated the laws governing their behavior. In I, Robot, Asimov 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--a future in which humanity itself may be rendered obsolete.

Die Geschichte ist wirklich klasse und eigentlich auch Pflichtleküre... und natürlich ist das Buch ganz anders als der Film.
