Against the backdrop of an increasingly dynamic world, driven by rapid digital innovation and technological advances, drones are becoming prolific within society. In this book, Andy Miah delivers a comprehensive analysis of the wide-reaching applications of drones, as well as a critical interrogation of the social, cultural and moral issues that they provoke. Delving into philosophical discussions about the implications of drone technology, this book shines a light on their real-world applications, the challenges they pose, and what they reveal about the human condition, when faced with a future of autonomous, intelligent robots.
'In remarkably short compass, Andy Miah has managed to present the most rounded view of drone technology currently in print. Virtually every aspect of drones -- from the mechanics and economics of their design to their use in warfare, entertainment and art -- is discussed with expert brevity and perspicuity. Arguably it is the only book available that could be read productively by anyone, regardless of the nature of their interest in drones.' -- Steve Fuller, University of Warwick, Author of Humanity 2.0.
