Paperback. Zustand: Fine. The Fifth Generation: Artificial Intelligence and Japan?s Computer Challenge to the World (1984) by Edward A. Feigenbaum & Pamela McCorduck ? Michael Joseph ISBN: 0718124014 | Condition: Fine | With Plastic Protective Jacket | Available from Crappy Old Books Ah, 1984. Orwell gave us Big Brother, and Feigenbaum and McCorduck gave us the tantalising promise (and looming dread) of The Fifth Generation . This was the book that convinced the world Japan was about to build thinking machines that would either help humanity reach utopia?or at the very least, beat everyone else at chess. If you?ve ever wanted to read a Cold War techno-thriller, but with footnotes, this is your chance. This copy is in fine condition ?a phrase rarely uttered at Crappy Old Books, but here we are. Not only is it clean, crisp, and seemingly untouched by human folly, it also comes wrapped in a plastic protective jacket , as though it had been cryogenically preserved by an overcautious librarian awaiting the robot uprising. The result? A time capsule from 1984, ready to whisper its prophecies to you without even a dog-eared corner in sight. Inside, you?ll find a heady mix of technical prophecy, cultural anxiety, and the kind of optimism that makes modern AI researchers either chuckle or wince. Japanese engineers were gearing up to unleash the ?fifth generation? of computing?machines with logic, reasoning, and terrifyingly good manners. America and Europe were supposed to quiver in their boots. Spoiler: what we actually got were faster spreadsheets, Tamagotchis, and eventually TikTok. But don?t let hindsight spoil the fun?this is a vintage techno-fear cocktail , shaken, not stirred. As with all Crappy Old Books, we can?t promise it will teach you how to fend off Skynet or impress your laptop with your superior knowledge of Prolog. But we can promise that owning this beautifully preserved copy will let you look very clever indeed while sipping coffee and muttering about how ?people saw all this coming in the ?80s.? So, if you?re a collector of Cold War curios, a lover of AI history, or simply someone who appreciates a fine book in a fine plastic jacket, this one?s for you. Think of it as an artefact from an alternate future?the future that never quite arrived, but still makes for a damn good read. Crappy Old Books: keeping yesterday?s technological anxieties in tomorrow?s mint condition. Condition near new, well preserved. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 4369
