Klappentext
Cybernetics - roughly, the study of systems - is often thought of as a grim science of control. This book reveals a much more lively and experimental strain of cybernetics that can be traced from the 1940s onwards.

Zusammenfassung
Cybernetics is often thought of as a grim military or industrial science of control. This title follows the history of cybernetics' impact on the world, from contemporary robotics and complexity theory to the Chilean economy under Salvador Allende.
