Love Among The Robots by Emmett McDowell:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
"Henry Ohm, staid scientist, found he couldn’t keep his mind on his work— with that girl around. Such was the development of her — ah — personality that even the robots began getting ideas!"
(Love Among The Robots by Emmett McDowell)
Intriguing story about an independent-minded woman who is trying to run a mining operation on an asteroid, and a roboticist who is supervising eight experimental general purpose robots. The story has some fascinating speculations about how robots could learn to 'feel' in a manner similar to ourselves.
