5.0 out of 5 stars Isaac Asimov's best robot book, 23 Oct 2001
By Mr. G. P. J. Morrison (Brighton) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Robot Dreams (Paperback)
This book is a compilation of most of his robot stories with a brief introduction and some brilliantly written essays at the end exploring the future of robotics (the word "robotics" was coined by Asimov himself!)and their place with mankind. The book has beautifull illustrations throughout by the artist Ralph Mcquarrie, the star wars artist. The only bad point is that several of the stories occur in I, Robot.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book.....but not the robot packed book i expected, 16 Sep 2004
By Jasper Wong "jbywong" (Beijing, China) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Robot Dreams (Paperback)
Don't be put off by the title of my review, as this book is really good. However when I bought this book, taking account of its name, i expected a whole lot of robot stuff. Instead, this book has a few robot stories and then it goes on with science fiction unrelated to robots.

I am not saying that this book is bad, but if you expected to have a book with over 400 pages packed with infomation and stories about robots, get another book like Robot Visions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Retro sci-fi at some of its best, 18 Sep 2009
By JJ (Manchester UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Robot Dreams (Masterworks of Science Fiction and Fantasy, No 5) (Paperback)
This is an excellent look into how science fiction writers of the early 20th century viewed the future. Having read The Complete Robot of the same author i was familiar with his work. The short stories are surprising accurate in some ways and give a good view of how the future may look to come.

I would recommend this to anyone who loved thhe films I Robot (adpated from the stories of Assimov) or Langz original Metropolis.
