Asimov, Issac - I, Robot (Published in by The Folio Society in 2016. Illustrated by Alex Wells. Introduced by Daniel H. Wilson. Preface by Daniel H. Wilson. Bound in blocked cloth. Set in Garamond Pro. 256 pages. Frontispiece and 6 colour illustrations. Plain slipcase. 9" × 5.75". In his introduction to this edition, robotics engineer and novelist Daniel H. Wilson describes the influence of Asimov's fictional vision of the future. Whether coining the term 'robotics' (which he does in one of the I, Robot short stories) or inspiring Joseph Engelberger and George Devel to construct the first robotic arm, Asimov's gift, Wilson writes, was to 'lift our eyes to the horizon; to show us worlds worth living in'. )
