Self-Driving Cars

Once they were the stuff of science fiction, but almost out of nowhere, self-driving cars have become a reality.

Driverless cars are undoubtedly cool, but are they safe? Why do we need self-driving cars? Is it a case of technology creating a "need," or will they actually provide a benefit to society? This fascinating and timely volume offers a diverse array of perspectives written by experts on this twenty-first-century subject.
