Hardback. Condition: Good. Beyond Automation (1964) by John Diebold ? McGraw-Hill Offered by Crappy Old Books ? specialists in yesterday?s futures. Back when computers still filled rooms and ?automation? was a terrifying buzzword, John Diebold was already peering into the future?and finding opportunity rather than doom. In Beyon…d Automation , this tech visionary explores how machines would reshape not just industry, but society, government, and the very nature of work. Spoiler: some of it came true, some of it got eaten by the internet. Published in 1964, this McGraw-Hill edition is a Cold War classic of techno-optimism, complete with that unmistakable whiff of punch cards and pipe smoke. Our copy? It?s got edgewear, pencilled notes from someone who thought Y2K was coming early, and possibly the ghost of an IBM 7090 trapped inside. Crappy Old Books ? Because the future always looks better in retrospect. Hardback with dust jacket in really good condition.
