I can understand why my 14 year old self loved Asimov.
Today the idea of absolute truths especially in social sciences seem so 1957.
I thought Asimov took a little bit of a different slant here than the other Robot novels; there's still the futuristic predictions (done well as always), but the off-worlder's phobias played a very large role in the story.
I don't think it worked as well; the people reactions felt logical, but stiff. Asimov's really at his best when writing about society and robotics, rather than human relationships.
