Abstract

Professor Maurizio Balistreri’s book “Sex Robots: Love in the Age of Machines” tempers a creative exploration with a critical interrogation of the emergence of sex robots. Drawing from a wide array of relevant literature and examples, Professor Balistreri attends to some of the most pertinent points of sex robot research. By structuring the book into balanced assessments – evaluating arguments for and against each chapter’s topic – this publication gives an inquisitive and comprehensive overview of the ethical dilemmas of sex robots.
