II Cybernetic Frontiers, January 1974

“Every part of cybernetics research is jumping with fascinating activity. In this book I’m focusing on two frontiers that look particularly poignant and promising. Though polar opposites in their relation to computing machines, they are parallel in their relation to Man’s special pride, conscious purposefulness. Both subvert it.”
