Back when computers still filled rooms and ?automation? was a terrifying buzzword, John Diebold was already peering into the future?and finding opportunity rather than doom. In Beyond Automation , this tech visionary explores how machines would reshape not just industry, but society, government, and the very nature of work. Spoiler: some of it came true, some of it got eaten by the internet.

Because the future always looks better in retrospect. Hardback with dust jacket in really good condition.
