Publisher's Summary
Andy’s origin story starts with renowned psych professor Cyrus Bergen’s dream of creating the perfect man - that and a table full of anatomical parts at Robotics International. When R.I. flips the switch to activate their prototype, Andy’s job is to make Cyrus’ dream come true. Problem is, Andy’s emerging notions about independence and self-determination don’t fit in at all with R.I.’s business model.
The Plot:
Robotics International’s brand new anatomically correct and fully functional android has all the physical attributes to appeal to their target population of high-powered female executives. The problem is, when they first powered him up, Andy hadn’t a clue what to say or how to say it. R.I’s solution? Consign him to the world-renowned psych professor on the condition that Cyrus Bergen will teach Andy to be likeable. While Cyrus is teaching Andy to act in ways that people like, Robotics International is polling a world-wide sampling of top-tier female execs to nail down exactly what they want in a "personal assistant". It’s funny (sometimes, ha-ha funny) how frequently those Venn diagrams overlap.
