First published in 1955, The Robot Era presents a pioneering examination of the emerging field of robotics and automated systems during the post-World War II industrial expansion. This seminal work offers valuable historical insights into how these revolutionary technologies were perceived during their formative years. It discusses themes like wheels within wheels; automata in action; robots in our midst; the advent of computers; autofabrication processes; the electronic brain; and future technological projections. This is an important historical reference work for anyone interested in the history of robotics and history of science and technology.
