Robot Dreams "Robot Dreams", is a collection of 20 science fiction short stories by Isaac Asimov, illustrated by Ralph McQuarrie. It was published in Robot Dreams in 1986 by Berkley Books. The title story is about Susan Calvin's discovery of a robot with rather disturbing dreams. It explores the unbalance of robot/human relationships under Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics. It was nominated for a Hugo Award in 1987. It won the Locus Award for Best Short Story in 1987. It was written specifically for this volume and inspired by the McQuarrie cover illustration. All of the other stories had previously appeared in various other Asimov collections. Four of the stories are robot stories, while five are Multivac stories.
