The complete collection of Isaac Asimov’s classic Robot stories.
In these stories, Asimov creates the Three Laws of Robotics and ushers in the Robot Age – when Earth is ruled by master-machines and when robots are more human than mankind.
The Complete Robot is the ultimate collection of timeless, amazing and amusing robot short stories from the greatest science fiction writer of all time, offering golden insights into robot thought processes. Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics were programmed into real computers thirty years ago at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology – with surprising results. Readers of today still have many surprises in store…

After just reading the first of the ~30 stories in the book I could already see the geniosity of Asimov. This book doesn't take Dune's place as my favorite, but it certainly puts Asimov as my favorite author.
This is the book I would suggest for someone who doesn't like science fiction to read first. The stories are very short, and the very first one will hook them up.
Asimov focus on the human aspects of the robot stories, making them totally atemporal.
Not a fan of short stories; no reflection on Isaac Asimov or other books in the Robot series.
Kurzgeschichtensammlung. Spektrum von “dumm” bis “OMG zomg wow”, alles dabei. Ein paar davon sollte jeder lesen. Ein paar davon sollte niemand lesen müssen.
