Essay Intro

             In Philip K. Dick's book, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? , and Isaac Asimov's book, I,Robot, the purpose of using robots are different. Philip K. Dick does mention the robots to be considered an advantage in social status and a reason to move to the new colony world in Mars. The robots in his story seem more as an object to be unnecessarily used, and on the contrary in Isaac Asimov's book it seems that the robots are used for a more industrial purpose as well as the tools.The robots in both novels are manipulated in different ways; slaves, industrial workers, and are used to ameliorate economic and life standards.
