THE COMPLETE ROBOT

'The Complete Robot' is a collection of science fiction short stories by Isaac Asimov written between 1940 and 1976, which were previously collected in books ''I, Robot'', ''The Rest of the Robots'', and other anthologies. Although working well enough as standalone stories, they share a theme of the interaction of humans, robots and morality, and put together tell a larger story of Asimov's fictional history of robotics.
