First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The New York Academy of Sciences, 1948. 8vo, 91 pp. Brown paper wraps, Very Good condition with light age and small stain to first several pages. An extract from Volume 50 of the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. Notable for Wiener s article Time, Communication, and the Nervous System, though the three others included are also of much interest: Hutchinson s Circular Causal Systems in Ecology, Livingston s The Vicious Circle in Causalgia, and McCulloch s A Recapitulation of the Theory, with a Forecast of Several Extensions. Essential, very early cybernetic theorizing. This copy is from the collection of Dr. Frank Brink, with his signature to the cover. Brink was an important biophysicist known for his work in the neural mapping of unknown regions in the human brain. A rare extract generally, and a fascinating association copy.
