Hello, Robot. Design between Human and Machine

The book investigates how robotics has become an integral part of our everyday lives, as these intelligent machines emerge from their hidey-holes in washing machines, cars, and ATMs, we are getting used to encountering them almost everywhere. The book also shows that design in its traditional function as a mediator is indispensable for robots to participate in our day-to-day activities. Hello, Robot broadens the scope of debate to include the ethical and political questions arising from technological advances in robotics today and confronts us with the contradictions that often underpin the answers to these questions.
