About this item
How to Pass As Human is an attempt on the part of the world's first android to understand the irrational, unpredictable, eclectic creatures known as human beings. In this field guide, complete with sketches, graps, flow charts, and other reference amterials, Android (a.k.a. Zach) has compiled a variety of useful information for future androids on how to pass undetected as human beings. Along the way, he also attempts to solve the mystery of his own creation with the help of Andrea, who has taken an interest in him that may be more than friendly, which eventually leads him to meet his maker (literally) and discover the surprising purpose of his existence.
