Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. John Cohen. Human Robots in Myth and Science. NY and South Brunswick, Barnes & Co., 1966 first U.S. edition. Cloth, dustjacket. Nicely illustrated. This is a surprisingly good book, from its topic (look hard at the title) and in that it is scholarly though very approachable and has about 200 footnotesI've found it very useful. VG copy in a G dustjacket (and probably better than that).

Add to basketBuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - First published in 1966, in Human Robots in Myth and Science, the author traces the idea of the robot from antiquity until the present day (1960s) and sketches the lines of its likely development in the future. Modern science, like science fiction, is deeply concerned with the idea of a robot or self-regulating artifact which operates without human aid. Ultra rapid computers, pilotless planes, and automated factories straight away come to mind, but there are numberless other automatic devices.
