Summary
Details

"This volume of the enduring classic features five stories that take place between the first and second volumes of the series.

Now a major motion picture!

Deep into the 21st century, the line between man and machine has been inexorably blurred as humans rely on the enhancement of mechanical implants, and robots are upgraded with human tissue. In this rapidly converging technoscape, the cover-ops agents of Section 9 are charged to track and crack the most dangerous terrorists, cybercriminals, and ghost hackers the digital future has to offer. Whether dealing with remote-controlled corpses, lethally malfunctioning micromachines, or cop-killer cyborgs, Section 9 is determined to serve and protect...and reboot some cybercrook butt!

Ghost in the Shell 1.5- Human-Error Processor presents for the first time in America the ""lost"" Ghost in the Shell stories, created by Shirow Masamune after completing work on the original Ghost in the Shell manga and prior to his tour-de-force, Ghost in the Shell 2- Man-Machine Interface, but never collected until now. Focusing on Section 9 agents in their daily battle against technocrime, Human-Error Processor

has all the mind-twisting cybermadness you've come to expect from Ghost in the Shell but set in a more police-procedural context with action and suspense galore. Features the stories ""Fat Cat,"" ""Drive Slave,"" ""Mines of Mind,"" and ""Lost Past."""
