Description
This is a digital re-issue of Frederik L. Schodt's now-classic work, _Inside the Robot Japan Mechatronics, and the Coming Robotopia_. Focusing on industrial and fantasy robots in Japan as a metaphor for the relationship between culture and technology, this book was first issued in hardcover in 1988, and paperback in 1990. In 1988 it was described by Library Journal as one of the best sci-tech books of the year. This digital version is based on the 1990 paperback edition, with a new cover, foreword, several color images, and searchable, free-flowing text. Designed by maestro Raymond Larrett, of Unbound EBooks.
