  Falling in love (and out of love) with statues, the author reveals has helped us since antiquity to understand, improve, and empower ourselves. He narrates a powerful history of artificial life at a moment when - with the development of robot soldiers, genetic engineering, and an expanding digital universe - it seems more real than ever.
