Isaac Asimov, Author, Postcard to W. Jeffrey Hurst regarding Robotics, 1989

0.01 Linear Feet 1 item (1 folder)
Postcard sent by science fiction author Isaac Asimov to W. Jeffrey Hurst on 10 April 1989. Hurst had previously written to Asimov to request that he write an article for the journal "Laboratory Robotics and Automation". Asimov's postcard regretfully declines Hurst's offer, as Asimov explains that his experience with robotics, a term Asimov invented, came from his fiction writing rather than practical experience with the subject. Postcard is typewritten with Asimov's signature in blue ink.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
