Isaac Asimov is the author of the classic science fiction book, I Robot. This is a collection of short stories that were published in the 1940's. The book was published in 1950. The stories are told by journalists who interview Dr. Susan Calvin, a world famous robopsychologist who works for a large robot manufacturer. All stories involve humans, robots, and moral decisions. Some of it gets a bit philosophical. I was pleasantly surprised to see the world expert on robot psychology be a woman. This collection of 9 short stories has been made into a television series and several films.
