It's not recent, but John T. Sladek's "The Reproductive System" (aka "Mechasm" in North America) is a book about the evolution of simple, autonomous robots into a larger, intelligent system. It's sci-fi humour from the 60's, but worth a read today. I doubt if it's available as an ebook, though, as even paper copies of Sladek's books are getting mighty thin on the shelves.
