In these stories from the pages of "Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine", acclaimed science-fiction writers--such as Urusla K. Le Guin, Bruce Sterling, and Mike Resnick--present their own provocative visions of what an ideal world is really like.
In a universe protected by the Three Laws of Robotics, humans are safe. The Third Law states, A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. The world of Inferno is dying. A world where Spacers work with Settlers, where standard Three-Law robots exist alongside the controversial New-Law robots. A world that will be uninhabitable in a few decades. Their only hope comes from a plan some call insane, and some call visionary: drop a comet on the planet. The impact could create new rivers that would save the planet but it could also destroy Inferno completely! Now the Spacers of Inferno must take a risk. A risk that their robots, pledged to protect humans from any harm, real or imagined, may not let them take...
Isaac Asimov's famous Three Laws are the proposed new laws that Roger MacBride Allen considers here. These laws, which endow humanity with helping hands but not robotic slaves, provides a far-future for humanity.
From the author of THE BICENTENNIAL MAN and ROBOT DREAMS, a collection of thirty-six robot stories and essays. From Robbie, Asimov's first robot story, to human and robot detectives Lije Bailey and R. Daneel Olivaw.
Winner of the PEN/Hemingway Award: "Unqualified praise goes to this rarity: an extraordinary novel about ordinary people."-- Chicago Tribune
Using selections from writers like Margaret Atwood, Octavia Butler, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Karen Joy Fowler, Ursula K. Le Guin, James Tiptree jr., and many others, this collection shows how the imagined worlds of science fiction create hold experiments for testing feminist hypotheses and for interpreting philosophical questions about humanity, gender, equality and more. Four main themes: Part 1, 'Human nature and reality', concentrates on whether there is an intrinsic difference between males and females. Part 2, 'Dystopias: the worst of all possible worlds', portrays misogynistic societies uncomfortably familiar to the early 21st-century reader. Part 3, 'Separatist utopias: worlds of difference', assembles stories that scrutinize both the virtues and vices of separatism. In Part 4, 'Androgynous utopias: worlds of equality', the authors create worlds that anticipate the consequences, good and bad, of perfect sexual equality in education, intelligence, capability, and reproduction.
Depuis que les robots soumis aux Nouvelles Lois de la robotique ont été parqués dans la réserve d'Utopia, les habitants d'Inferno ont un sommeil plus serein. Mais ce répit est de courte durée, car un péril d'une autre nature les menace. Leur monde est à son déclin et dans quelques années il sera impropre à la vie. C'est alors qu'une jeune scientifique, Davlo Lentrall, vient soumettre au gouverneur Alvar Kresh un projet pour le moins audacieux : afin de stabiliser l'écosystème, il propose de faire choir sur la planète une comète qui y creusera une mer et des canaux. Certes, il y aura des secousses sismiques, des raz de marée, des nuages de poussière irrespirables... Des dangers somme toute négligeables, comparés à ce qui peut découler d'une interprétation possible de la Nouvelle Première Loi...
