Synopsis
Perkowitz (physics, Emory University) recounts the many artificial creatures that have been imagined by authors and scientists since the time of Greek mythology, reviews past attempts by inventors to create synthetic beings, and assesses current theories guiding research on the mind-body interface, artificial limbs, robotic movement, sensors for detecting light and sound, electronic brains, and digital consciousness.
