With robots, we are inventing a new species that is part material and part digital. The ambition of modern robotics goes beyond copying humans, beyond the effort to make walking, talking androids that are indistinguishable from people. Future robots will have superhuman abilitie…

Future science: essays from the cutting edge
From 19 talented young scientists comes a volume of essays about the future of science. Including cutting edge research across a wide range of fields, we make exciting new discoveries about some of the most interesting scientific problems today, from neuroscience and evolutionar…
"Eighteen of the top young scientists at work today present for the lay reader the latest developments in the fields of evolutionary psychology, neuroscience, genetic engineering, and climate science"--
This book examines four new approaches for problem solving in evolutionary robotics and agent simulation. Of particular interest is a new method that imitates natural evolution, allowing mutation and recombination operations to be adapted during the robotic evolution process.
Search: how the data explosion makes us smarter
The first web was nothing more than passing verbal histories down the generations so others could find and remember how not to get eaten; the first search used the power of written language to build simple indexes in printed books, leading to the Dewey Decimal system and reverse…
