The Caves of Steel
Asimov Isaachuman history: the colonization of the galaxy and the creation of the
positronic brain.
Isaac Asimov's "Robot" novels chronicle the unlikely
partnership between a New York City detective and a humanoid robot who
must learn to work together. Like most people left behind on an
over-populated Earth, New York City police detective Elijah Baley had
little love for either the arrogant Spacers or their robotic companions.
But when a prominent Spacer is murdered under mysterious circumstances,
Baley is ordered to the Outer Worlds to help track down the killer.
The
relationship between Life and his Spacer superiors, who distrusted all
Earthmen, was strained from the start. Then he learned that they had
assigned him a partner: R. Daneel Olivaw. Worst of all was that the " R"
stood for robot--and his positronic partner was made in the image and
likeness of the murder victim
