ACKNOWLEDGMENTS INTRODUCTION 1.
ROBOTS
A selection from THE IDEAL BY STANLEY G. WEINBAUM MOXON’S MASTER BY AMBROSE BIERCE REASON BY ISAAC ASIMOV Here now is the pathos I promised you—along with some humor which I did not mention—in a short story by a young British author who saw action in Burma and Sumatra in World War 11 and has been writing science fiction of increasing vividness and authority ever since. Like Bierce in a way, and like his compatriot J. G. Ballard, Aldiss is fascinated by the ugly and grotesque; his work frequently rises to really inspired nastiness (as in “Poor Little Warrior,” The Best From Fantasy and Science Fiction: Eighth Series, 1959). Here, although there is a touch of grotesquerie, Aldiss' mood is less savage than usual; his robots are among the most believable, and most appealing, in the literature. BUT WHO CAN REPLACE A MAN? BY BRIAN W. ALDISS
