Description
Psychologist Dr Alex Sorber is the ideal candidate when his company, BioMimetica, needs someone to take part in a highly unusual secret project - to act as companion to Kim Fox, the world's first android female. The machine, designed to experience a range of emotions, comes to live with Sorber who finds himself inexplicably drawn to this strange surrogate human. Events quickly spiral out of control as Sorber sees that Kim is more than just a sophisticated doll and their nascent feelings begin to develop with disastrous results - frightened and confused, the android goes missing in the city's labyrinthine streets. Sorber's desperate search for his lost companion leads him straight into a sinister web of deception and betrayal where he comes face to face with the darkest and bloodiest aspects of human nature. Is Kim what he thought she was? What is the real purpose of developing machines that can feel? The final fascinating twists to Machine Nation reveal layers of thought-provoking substance that combine high quality science fiction with the latest ominous developments in robotics and artificial intelligence.
