2. While I was going through sources, I see the different, the change of prosthetics, and I have learned the history, background of where and when prosthetic have started.
3. The thing that challenge me is to find source and complete the annotated bibliography.
4. There were no question have emerged, but I think I should find more source on how people treat the amputees that wearing prosthetic.

Progress Report Week 1
1. For this week, I have found some sources and almost done with finding sources.
2. While finding sources, I found out biotechnology was a big major, the topic that I am looking for is a part of biotechnology such as limbs replacement and there were lot of sources for the limbs replacement.
3. The thing that challenge me was to figure out what source is important and how it’s significant that relate to my topic.
4. There were no question have emerged, but I think I should put more focus on topper limbs such as arms because that is more harder for scientist and scientist wanted to create more comfortable robotic arms for people who need it.
5. My goals for next week is to go all over sources and finish the annotated bibliography.

I, ROBOT (THE EVITABLE CONFLICT) - Post #8
Passage:
" 'Oh, certainly. That is not surprising. The new system is be coming widespread. The surprise is that the Machine failed to warn Vrasayana to renovate or combine. -Still, no matter. Vrasayana accepted a job as engineer in the new plant, and if his responsibility and pay are now less, he is not actually suffering. The workers found employment easily; the old plant has been converted to-something or other. Something useful. We left in all to the Machine.' " (Pg.209)
Response:
This quote is from the last chapter of I, ROBOT, shows about the future life that people will all become unemployment because all the job are give to the Machine, and the Machine will do all the work. This final chapter of a book have bunch of questions and answers about the world in the future. Everything in the future mostly base on the advance technology. I wonder what will happen to our society if the Machine also run our government.
Analysis:
In the final chapter of the book, Isaac Asimov sums up all the questions of his readers might have made along reading this novel, and he also shows how the questions and answer through his characters in this novel. As a reader so far of this book, I realized that Isaac Asimov shows each chapter with different tale/story, but it still connected to each other. I think the readers of this fiction novel are very enjoyed their reading like I did with the creative thoughts of author even the book is made out in 1950.

I, ROBOT (EVIDENCE) - Post #7
Passage:
" 'Our district attorney never eats.' The repetition thumped by syllables. 'I'll modify that slightly. He has never been seen to eat or drink. Never! Do you understand the significance of the word? Not rarely, but never!'
'I find that quite incredible. Can you trust your investigators?'
'I can trust my investigators, and I don't find it incredible at all. Further, our district attorney has never been seen to drink-in the aqueous sense as well as the alcoholic-nor to sleep. There are other factors, but I should think I have made my point.' " (Pg.173)
Response:
This quote is from the chapter eight of I, ROBOT. This chapter shows Stephen Byerley is running for mayor in New York City, and Fracncis Quinn kept claiming that Stephen Byerley is one of the robots because he never eat or drink or sleep. Quinn ran to US Robotics to find some people who could help his claim. When Stephen Byerley arrives, people ask him to eat an apple to prove that he is a human, he ate the apple without hesitating, so he won the election. From this chapter, I wonder what will happen to our society if the robot becomes our leader.
Analysis:
In this chapter. I think Isaac Asimov purpose is to tell what will happen if the robot running for country politician, will the people trust the robot or not? or will the human let the robot running in the politics? As a reader, I enjoyed to read this chapter, because it the author created a relation of robot and human trust on the politics.
