I would have thought this would be free by now. Actually it is if you search for it but maybe breaking Copyright?

Asimov and Dick are responsible for a lot of the high concept scifi we have today. I'm disappointed to see folks criticize their writing from over 50 years ago as if they weren't in the process of...

A science fiction classic. Everyone should read this.
This bears no resemblance whatsoever to the rather lame movie that stole it's name.

Agreed. The movie was very loosely inspired by the stories in I Robot, but it's not really even remotely an adaptation. How could you really adapt a series of short stories anyway... They would have...

Absolutely, Asimov is one of the grandfathers of science fiction.
Interestingly enough, he wrote plenty of non-fiction as well.

A really incredible collection of ideas
No resemblance to the Scalzi crap that passes for SF in influencer oriented publishing

Wow. Calling Asimov's writing "high school" is kind of absurd. He was a voracious writer and not everything was cleaned and produced the way things are today. His longer form writing is incredibly...

There is one chapter that was the inspiration for Sonny in the movie. And obviously the 3 laws concept and how they can be distorted are applied in both the book and the movie.
