Rezensionen

"This is the story of one of those quests will change how we live. Burns was one of the first people to understand the massive implications of driverless cars. His involvement with the players inventing and commercializing this technology makes this book an authoritative preview of the autonomous age." John Casesa, Former Group Vice President, Global Strategy, Ford Motor Company
