{"product_id":"b000fc1pw0","title":"I, Robot","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis classic science fiction masterwork by Isaac Asimov weaves stories about robots, humanity, and the deep questions of existence into a novel of shocking intelligence and heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“A must-read for science-fiction buffs and literature enjoyers alike.”— The Guardian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI, Robot , the first and most widely read book in Asimov’s Robot series, forever changed the world’s perception of artificial intelligence. Here are stories of robots gone mad, of mind-reading robots, and robots with a sense of humor. Of robot politicians, and robots who secretly run the world—all told with the dramatic blend of science fact and science fiction that has become Asimov’s trademark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Three Laws of Robotics:\u003cbr\u003e\n1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.\u003cbr\u003e\n2) A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.\u003cbr\u003e\n3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith these three, simple directives, Isaac Asimov formulated the laws governing robots’ behavior. In  I, Robot , Asimov chronicles the development of the robot 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“Tremendously exciting and entertaining . . . Asimov dramatizes an interesting question: How can we live with machines that, generation by generation, grow more intelligent than their creators and not eventually clash with our own invention?”— The Chicago Tribune\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":52797425418456,"sku":"YSL26755","price":4.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/3356\/2072\/files\/81ZaDgeRX3L._SY1500.jpg?v=1792836666","url":"https:\/\/www.bookmebay.com\/products\/b000fc1pw0","provider":"BookMebay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
