the Manufacturing Revolution: How Factory of Future Is Being Built Today

Something is happening inside the world's factories - and most people have no idea what it means for them.From the shuttered steel corridors of Youngstown to the gleaming robotics halls of Denmark, from semiconductor clean rooms in Taiwan to the buzzing hardware markets of Shenzhen, a collision of robotics, artificial intelligence, advanced materials, and synthetic biology is reinventing how humanity makes things. Faster than anyone imagined possible.But this is not a book about machines. It is a book about power. Who owns the robots. Who writes the algorithms. Who extracts the rare earths. Who captures the wealth - and who gets left behind.Drawing on on-the-ground reporting from Detroit to Stuttgart, from Pittsburgh's robotics corridors to NASA's generative design labs, this sweeping investigation traces the industrial revolutions that built our world and interrogates the fifth one now unfolding before our eyes.The choices being made today - by engineers, policymakers, labor organizers, and entrepreneurs - will define the next century of human work and prosperity.The factory of the future is being assembled right now. This book is your map to understanding it - and your guide to demanding better.
