This was my first introduction to Susan Calvin, the fiercely intelligent yet socially challenged, robopsychologist. Although she appears unfeeling and quite emotionless and robot-like herself, you do see glimmers of vulnerability in her very occasionally. She must be one of Asimov's best known creations.
