Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. We live inside systems that correct us before we notice them. A thermostat steadies a room. A clock disciplines a city. A power grid balances every second. An aircraft survives by computation. A medical device listens to the body. A feed learns what holds the eye and quietly reshapes attenti…on. Control - The Hidden Technology is a sweeping, story-driven journey through the feedback loops that made the modern world possible. Moving from ancient water clocks and lighthouse flames to steam governors, electrical grids, rockets, self-driving cars, smart buildings, medical automation, robots, and artificial intelligence, Anders Hansson reveals a hidden history of machines that sense, compare, decide, and act. This is not only a book about technology. It is a book about trust, judgment, power, comfort, safety, and responsibility. Why do stable systems fail? When should automation take over, and when must a human remain in command? What happens when the controlled variable is not speed or temperature, but attention, health, or human behavior itself? Written for curious readers, engineers, designers, researchers, and anyone trying to understand an automated age, this book shows that control is one of civilization's quietest inventions---and one of its most consequential. To understand control is to understand how the world holds together, how it breaks apart, and how we might design systems worthy of human trust. This is the first major popular work that treats control engineeringas a cultural, ethical, and civilizational force, not just a technical discipline. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
