Título : I, robot Tipo de documento: documento multimedia Autores: Isaac Asimov, Autor Mención de edición: 1 Editorial: Macmillan Fecha de publicación: 2008 Colección: Macmillan readers Número de páginas: 95 p. Il.: il. Dimensiones: 20 cm. Material de acompañamiento: 2 CD ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-0-230-02682-7 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Clasificación: Inglés:Literatura:Lecturas adaptadas:Con audio:Nivel B1 Clasificación: ING(A) Lecturas adaptadas en Inglés Resumen: The three laws of Robotics:
1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
2) A robot must obey orders givein to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
With these three, simple directives, Isaac Asimov changed our perception of robots forever when he formulated the laws governing their behavior. In I, Robot, Asimov chronicles the development of the robot through a series of interlinked stories: 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.
Here are stories of robots gone mad, of mind-read 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 Asmiov's trademark.Nota de contenido: Pre-intermediate level (4) A2-B1.

It needs constant supplies of air, water, and food; it has to spend a third of its life asleep, and it can't work if the temperature is too hot or too cold. But a robot is made of strong metal. It uses electrical energy directly, never sleeps, and can work in any temperature. It is stronger, more efficient - and sometimes more human than human beings. Isaac Asimov was one of the greatest sciencefiction writers, and these short stories give us an unforgettable and terrifying vision of the future. Nota de contenido: Stage 5.
