Library Media Connection (October 2007)
This series would be excellent for even older reluctant readers who will initially be attracted by the covers and topics. Colorful pictures interspersed with great graphics, a good sized font, and factoids on every double-page spread make this an easy read that will hold the interest of all age levels. Robot Brains gives a quick view of the history of robotics and a look at the wide diversity of robots in use today. Industrial robots are covered in Robot Workers. Robot Voyagers takes the reader from the early days in space exploration to biobots, which mimic nature. Robot Warriors presents history of "automated fighting machines" and how the miniaturization and speed of computers have made it possible for remote controlled robots to go into places too dangerous for humans. Each volume ends with a chapter on what is next, followed by a timeline, glossary, and index. Junior high students will especially enjoy these books given how much they like computers and computerized games. Recommended.
