In the future, robots are more than machines. Autonomous "cyber-persons" with A.I. brains are part of society, interacting with humans while developing their own culture. In fact, they may be surpassing humans, as biological homo sapiens have begun to die out and give way to robo sapiens. But are humans truly disappearing, or are robots the newest form of humanity? This millennia-spanning, speculative science fiction manga of interconnected stories, both human and robotic, was awarded the Division Grand Prize at the 2020 Japan Media Arts Festival.

Japan is arguably the first postindustrial society to embrace the prospect of human-robot coexistence. Over the past decade, Japanese humanoid robots designed for use in homes, hospitals, offices, and schools have become celebrated in mass and social media throughout the world. In Robo sapiens japanicus, Jennifer Robertson casts a critical eye on press releases and public relations videos that misrepresent robots as being as versatile and agile as their science fiction counterparts. An ethnography and sociocultural history of governmental and academic discourse of human-robot relations in Japan, this book explores how actual robots—humanoids, androids, and animaloids—are “imagineered” in ways that reinforce the conventional sex/gender system and political-economic status quo. In addition, Robertson interrogates the notion of human exceptionalism as she considers whether “civil rights” should be granted to robots. Similarly, she juxtaposes how robots and robotic exoskeletons reinforce a conception of the “normal” body with a deconstruction of the much-invoked Theory of the Uncanny Valley.

Laura Ludwig´s Robo-Sapiens is a collection of her work in poetry, stage plays, and screenplays. These works are insightful political, social, and philosophical commentary, ranging from satirical to straight-but are always based on Ms. Ludwig´s serious concern for all our futures. Some of these works have been performed on National Educational Radio; WBAI-FM, Teachers´ and Writers´ Collaborative programming, and numerous cable television channels. Robo-Sapiens is not only entertaining and enlightening, but a warning bell in the night-and testimony of Ms. Ludwig´s maturity as a striving, driven, middle-aged artist.

The Graves of Tarim narrates the movement of an old diaspora across the Indian Ocean over the past five hundred years. Ranging from Arabia to India and Southeast Asia, Engseng Ho explores the transcultural exchanges—in kinship and writing—that enabled Hadrami Yemeni descendants of the Muslim prophet Muhammad to become locals in each of the three regions yet remain cosmopolitans with vital connections across the ocean. At home throughout the Indian Ocean, diasporic Hadramis engaged European empires in surprising ways across its breadth, beyond the usual territorial confines of colonizer and colonized. A work of both anthropology and history, this book brilliantly demonstrates how the emerging fields of world history and transcultural studies are coming together to provide groundbreaking ways of studying religion, diaspora, and empire. Ho interprets biographies, family histories, chronicles, pilgrimage manuals and religious law as the unified literary output of a diaspora that hybridizes both texts and persons within a genealogy of Prophetic descent. By using anthropological concepts to read Islamic texts in Arabic and Malay, he demonstrates the existence of a hitherto unidentified canon of diasporic literature. His supple conceptual framework and innovative use of documentary and field evidence are elegantly combined to present a vision of this vital world region beyond the histories of trade and European empire.

Robot Ascension extends past my book, The Sky Between Two Worlds, to explore a post-apocryphal future where robots are loyal but superior to humans. It is a near-future science fiction thriller of intrigue, love, war and survival for humans and robots. It is also hard science fiction seeking answers to what might happen as cloud-supported robots learn, evolve and become increasingly aware of themselves, the deficiencies of humans, and the limitations of the surrounding world. The story begins with Kantak Johnson and family after the world recovers from The Great Oil War.The Johnson's find that the robots they designed to assist Alaskan miners can be improved to clean-up and rebuild war damaged cities. Indeed, performing increasingly complex tasks, the robots become what humans would call self-aware. While Kantak Johnson, elected to the North American Parliament, contemplated closing the family robot factory, his grown-up daughter Luanne, fresh from college and business school, asked to run the business. She and Kantak designed and made a special robot named James to assist her in the business. The three of them designed a Robotic Cloud to receive, store and redistribute what their fellow robots learned. But times are uneasy. Fast-money speculators play rough, and human workers fear that robots will take their jobs. Then old quarrels between East and West reignite conflict, this time using robot armies. The robots, concluding that humans cannot be dissuaded from greed and war, take appropriate action.
