In Out of the Box: Building Robots, Transforming Lives, Andrew Williams tells his story of overcoming life’s odds to build robots and impact the lives of six bright and adventurous African American females. Tracing the steps of his journey, Williams takes us from the Kansas ghetto in which he was raised and where he was for all intents and purposes, written off by society’s standards, to Osaka Japan, where he led the first all-female team from Spelman College - the Spelbots, to the stage of the RoboCup Tournament.Compelled by tough love, commitment and the prayers of faithful men and women whom God placed in his life along the way; driven by his belief that God has called him to uplift and encourage African American youth Dr. Andrew Williams shows that with God, seemingly impossible dreams become possible.In this biography he challenges the reader through his own faith story to find and pursue their unique calling, even when it does not make sense.
Out of the Box: Building Robots, Transforming Lives by Dr. Andrew Williams is a very good book. It is a call for all students, parents, teachers to understand and grasp that, as his favorite quote says "Success is never final. Failure is seldom fatal. But it's Courage that counts." - Winston Churchill. Dr. Williams takes you through the journey of his life and shows how no matter your pedigree, race, sex, or your past that with God and hard work amazing things can happen.You also get to learn about and follow the beginnings and the growth of the first All Female Robocup team - the Spelbots of Spellman College as the travel to Japan to compete. Do they win? Yes and no... you will just have to read to find out.I had first heard about this book on Moody Radio and thought it might be interesting to read. I am glad I did. And I recommend to anyone else kids, adults, and whoever else might be looking at this book.
