@quazarsamcoupe@mastodonapp.uk Thanks for all the suggestions. Maybe I'm misremembering the book. Thanks for unlocking memories. 😁

@UKFilmNerd@mastodon.me.uk I know the feeling! In all the years I'd been trying to hunt down this book I always thought it had a red cover! I had no idea of the name or author either. As for contents all I could really remember was the crappy 'cyberman' which had annoyed me so much, and the Grand Turk chess player on a later page. But upon going through it now so many things immediately appear so familiar. And just to finish off, both the truck and exoskeleton are also in the 1983 book... https://archive.org/details/50factsaboutrobo00lamb/
