This book covers the very wide roll of robots in differing guises and their relationship with their human masters. Whether they are Automobiles, insects or planetary mining equipment the robots are constant and faithful. They go to extraordinary lengths to obey humans' instructions to the letter in context of Asimovs' 'three laws of robotics' which are programmed in to every robot positronic brain to protect us. Asimov persuades us to side with the robot against the contrary, ignorant, selfish bulk of humanity. Even those who, through intuition, intelligence and luck prevent potential disasters are deeply flawed as people. This book is a good introduction to Asimovs' 14 book 'history of the future'. It displays the authors ability to convince the reader that the worlds he creates are the natural consequences of the way people are and the sorts of robots we would create, not always by design.
