«La máquina que ganó la guerra» is a volume of six science fiction stories by Isaac Asimov, published by Luis de Caralt in paperback (206 pages, in Spanish).
Six science fiction stories in which Asimov plays with paradox and humour to dismantle the contradictions of common sense. The title story presents a machine created to direct a war, with the talent and petulance of a brilliant strategist. The collection stands out for its irony and its allusions to the contemporary world.
Published in 1977, it belongs to the Ciencia Ficción collection (no. 9) by Luis de Caralt, translated by Antonio-Prometeo Moya. Original title: The Machine That Won the War.
Recommended for readers of classic science fiction and for those who enjoy Isaac Asimov's ironic and speculative stories.
