About this book

Growing Up with Lucy: How to Build an Android in Twenty Easy Steps by Grand, Steve. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780297607335.

Steve Grand is a self-taught scientist who has deliberately eschewed large public grants and laboratory affiliation so as to give himself the freedom required to put his revolutionary theories on artificial intelligence to the test. The result is Lucy, one of the most advanced research robots in existence, and it is Lucys successes and failures which stand as indicators of the present state of robotics. The compelling story of Lucys creation, all done in Steves own home, is a fascinating mixture of human perseverance and cutting edge scientific endeavour.
