Same goes for Minority Report. The book was also from Philip K. Dick and it's plot is a lot better then Tom Cruise playing with wooden balls.
Philip K Dick and Asimov or two of my favourites.

Totally agree there niek_e! although minority report (the film) was quite good
Computers are man's attempt at designing a cat: It does whatever it wants, whenever it wants, and rarely ever at the right time.

minority report was indeed a good movie, as was i robot.
of course, in almost all cases the book is better - it has the time to devote to the details - movies are quick entertainment.
