This collection takes the issue that most divides this country and moves it to the quiet, intimate stories of people from across the country. This collection isn't meant to advocate a position. Instead, we want the personal stories and reflections from people who come from diverse backgrounds and want to share their American story.

Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein or, The Modern Prometheus was first published two hundred years ago on March 11, 1818. Shelley's novel warns of the possible sacrifices for knowledge and hints toward the costs to man and society, how new knowledge can redefine human existence and experience. These themes of Frankenstein have been reinterpreted and applied to debates regarding atomic weapons, nuclear energy, cloning, bioengineering, robotics, and artificial intelligence (AI). This collection brings together CMU scholars in the Arts, Humanities, and Sciences to consider the relevance of Shelley's novel today, particularly how it helps frame the responsibility of investigators to consider the consequences of artificial intelligence and a technologically-augmented human society.

We have no clout whatsoever. We donÕt work for a publishing house, weÕre not hiding a printing press in a basement, and we arenÕt part of whatever mythical body of old white men drinking scotch in a shadowed library determines the literary canon. WeÕre just people who have worked a lot of bad jobs, and put up with a lot of bullshit, and decided we wanted to hear about how that same phenomenon happened to others. If youÕre reading this, itÕs because you want to hear about that too. We think youÕll find the mix of essays, short stories, and poems in this collection speak to common experiences and make you feel less alone in your struggle against the grinding machine of entropy.
