Synopsis

“This book contains Asimov’s topics and essences in all its stories. It contains Isaac Asimov ́s themes: robots, aliens and mysteries always solved by a logical and scientific way. If you like these themes, you will love this book. Asimov makes you feel that you really are the character that needs to deal with a struggle (usually caused by a robot or an alien), and makes you think logically about this problem to solve it by the best way, taking care about every detail. Fantastic! Simply fantastic!” —a reviewer Robot Dreams collects 21 of Isaac Asimov's short stories spanning the body of his fiction from the 1940s to the 1980s——exploring not only the future of technology, but the future of humanity's maturity and growth.
