I, Robot : The Illustrated Screenplay Book

Numerous attempts had been made to adapt Isaac Asimov's classic story-cycle, I, Robot, to the motion picture medium. All efforts failed. In 1977, producers approached multiple-award-winning author Harlan Ellison to take a crack at this impossible project. He accepted, and produced an astonishing screenplay that Asimov felt would be The first really adult, complex, worthwhile science fiction movie ever made. That screenplay is presented here in book format.

In more than 25 years, no one has been able to bring Isaac Asimov's classic story cycle, I, Robot, to the big screen because of elaborate, complicated special effects. Now, the screenplay is presented in a large-book format. The tale of memorable robots with positronic brains is brought to life by vibrant, full-color illustrations.
