- Summary:
- Explores critical questions at the intersection of robotics and social justice. Considers the ways in which roboticists design their robots' appearance, how robots think and act, how robots perceive people, and the domains into which robots are deployed. The book highlights not only the ways roboticists tend to reinforce white patriarchal power structures, but also how roboticists might instead subvert those power structures by applying theories and methods from a diverse range of fields.
