"...a relatively compact summary of various aspects of robotic technology, describing current applications and their potential implications. It provides brief discussions on several specific uses such as exoskeletons, brain-controlled interfaces, and artificial intelligence. The book's strength is that it provides context and a few case examples, rather than detailed descriptions of each application,... [and] an introduction and overview of robotic technologies and their potential applications. This book will be valuable for early career rehabilitation professionals and students in those disciplines.... The text in the chapters is well-written and easy to follow,... pictures are plentiful and useful. [It] is very well-referenced, and one valuable feature is that each chapter begins with a pulled out set of bullets called "Key Points.".... [It's] relatively comprehensive and current, compared to many of them." ©Doody's Book Review Service, 2025, Elliot Roth, MD (Shirley Ryan AbilityLab)
