The machine has asked a question, and it was addressed to the children: What should I do?
Nobody in the room can answer it. Neither, it turns out, can anybody else.
The last book has no new machinery to teach. It has a question, and four people who genuinely disagree about it — about fairness that cannot be satisfied all at once, about who owns a thought, about work, and about where a human must always be the one to decide. The book refuses to take a side.
It ends with a letter to the reader and a blank page headed "Your answer:"
Book 5 of five.
Inside this volume:
Ten chapters, ten paper-and-pencil activities, each with a five-minute solo version. No computer required, ever. Written for readers aged 12 to 18, fully illustrated in colour.
Everything it learns, you learn first.
