About This Item
A good copy of the first Doubleday edition. Not the Book Club edition. Price of $3.50 on dust jacket and the statement "Science Fiction Book Club Selection.". Some rubbing and foxing to the dust jacket. A few cloth imperfections, one along the top edge. Doubleday was notorious for cheaply manufactured books. A scarce book of one of the classics in the Science Fiction genre.
Synopsis
I, Robot is a collection of nine science fiction short stories by Isaac Asimov, first published by Gnome Press in 1950 in an edition of 5,000 copies. The stories originally appeared in the American magazines Super Science Stories and Astounding Science Fiction between 1940 and 1950. The stories are woven together as Dr. Susan Calvin tells them to a reporter (the narrator) in the 21st century.
