This book reveals that the way we perceive sex robots is how we
perceive ourselves, overcoming the false human/non-human binary.
From Greek myths, to the film Ex Machina, to Japanese technology,
non-human sexuality has been at the heart of culture. In Sex
Robots, the history of this culture is explored. This text sheds
new light on what the sex robot represents and signifies,
examining its philosophical implications within the context of
today's society. This volume will be of interest to scholars of
technology, cultural studies, the social sciences and
philosophy.
