Summary Can machines simulate, express or even have emotions? Is it a good to build such machines? How do humans react emotionally to them and how should such devices be treated from a moral point of view? This volume addresses these and related questions by bringing together perspectives from affective computing and emotional human-machine interaction, combining technological approaches with those from the humanities and social sciences. It thus relates disciplines such as philosophy, computer science, technology, psychology, sociology, design, and art. The volume offers readers interested in the phenomenon of emotional machines new perspectives from a variety of disciplines and addresses fundamental questions that will become pressing in the foreseeable future as emotional machines increasingly populate our everyday lives. The Editors Catrin Misselhorn, chair of philosophy at the University of Göttingen Tom Poljanšek, post-doc in philosophy at the University of Göttingen. Tobias Störzinger, post-doc in philosophy at the University of Göttingen. Maike Klein, project manager at the German Informatics Society
