It’s cool seeing where a lot of modern movies, shows, books, about robots got their inspiration. I enjoyed how each story felt like it could be read on its own, but played an important part to the whole story. The ideas that were laid out are also classic thought pieces that still resonate.

I appreciated how each story stood by itself as well as being part of the greater whole.
It was easy for me ignore the areas in which it was dated, in which our current technology has either surpassed what Asimov describes or where we are no where near where he describes us being at this point in time.

I wanted to like this book, but I just couldn't bring myself to care about any characters. That is one of my problems with short stories, though. I gave up about 100 pages in. I guess I just wasn't all that interested in the robots.

I picked up this book expecting it to be like the movie. It wasn't at all. Lots of interesting philosophical ideas. Definitely a product of its time: eugenicist, sexist, racist undertones.
