De drie wetten


1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.


Isaac Asimov, The Three Laws of Robotics, 1942.

Lezers die kortelings naar Londen trekken: een aanrader, de niet zo grote, maar wel leuke tentoonstelling over sf-boeken in The British Library.

Heel knappe catalogus ook. Sf-naslagwerk.
