Cybernetics or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine
Book • 1948
Norbert Wiener's 'Cybernetics' is a seminal work that laid the theoretical foundations for the multidisciplinary field of cybernetics.
It examines the flow of information in systems with feedback loops, whether biological, mechanical, cognitive, or social.
The book is both philosophical and technical, discussing concepts like Newtonian and Bergsonian time and the impact of noise on homeostasis.
The 1961 second edition includes supplementary chapters on learning and self-organizing systems.
