Robotics books

[MentorOfSteel]

Almost Human: Making Robots Think by Lee Gutkind is a "creative nonfiction" book that provides a decent snapshot of what it is like to do robotics research at the university level. It gets uneven reviews on Amazon. I liked it (I am a bit biased because it describes projects I know well) and I suspect that most FIRST folks will like it too.

"Riding Rockets" by Mike Mulane is an excellent book, and looks in depth at the modern day NASA astronaut corps. I agree, "Skunk Works" was an awesome book. I've read it many times.
