Originally written by Raymond Ruyer in 1954, this book is a critical and analytical exploration of information theory, cybernetics, and the philosophical assumptions and implications of both. It covers the main types of information machines, the relationship between information and behavior and communication, and the nature of entropy and time in cybernetics. This translation contributes to understanding the rich history of cybernetics and the philosophy of information, and will help readers understand foundational criticisms of ideas that have led to artificial intelligence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 535g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 x 158 x 24 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781786614971\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raymond Ruyer","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47482056802554,"sku":"9781786614971","price":75.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1751627642828_book.jpg?v=1751755682","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/cybernetics-and-the-origin-of-information-9781786614971","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
