Earlier this week, U.S. drones bombed targets in Pakistan. It’s the latest example of the growing use of unmanned systems by the American military — and, some would say, of science fiction becoming reality. What are the ethical and political implications of this increased use of robots on the battlefield? Author P.W. Singer joins us to talk about his new book, “Wired for War.”

Guests:

P.W. Singer, senior fellow and director of the 21st Century Defense Initiative at the Brookings Institution and author of "Wired for War"
