**Book Description:**
"Autonomy" by Lawrence Burns provides an insightful and comprehensive account of the race between major players like Google, Tesla, and Uber to develop driverless cars. Lawrence Burns, a former General Motors executive and current advisor to the Google Self-Driving Car project (now Waymo), takes readers on a journey through the history and future of autonomous vehicles.
