Extractions: Norbert Wiener 's father was Leo Wiener who was a Russian Jew. Because Leo Wiener was such a major influence on his son, we should give some background to his education and career. Leo Wiener attended medical school at the University of Warsaw but was unhappy with the profession so he went to Berlin where he began training as an engineer. This profession seemed only a little more interesting to him than the medical profession, and he emigrated to the United States having first landed in England. We should note that throughout his education Leo was interested in mathematics and, although he never used his mathematical skills in any jobs he held, it was a deep amateur interest to him all through his life. Arriving in New Orleans in 1880, Leo tried his hand at various jobs in factories and farms before becoming a school teacher in Kansas City. He progressed from being a language teacher in schools to becoming Professor of Modern Languages at the University of Missouri. While there he met and married Bertha Kahn, who was the daughter of a department store owner. Bertha, from a German Jewish family, was [6]:- ... a small woman, healthy, vigorous and vivacious.

http://userwww.sfsu.edu/~rsauzier/Wiener.html

Extractions: In his own introduction to Cybernetics , Wiener reminisces about discussions with colleagues quite evocative of the NEXA theme For many years Dr. Rosenblueth and I had shared the conviction that the most fruitful areas for the growth of the sciences were those which had been neglected as a no-man's land between the various established fie lds. Since Leibniz there has perhaps been no man who has had a full command of all the intellectual activity of his day. Since that time, science has been increasingly the task of specialists, in fields which show a tendency to grow progressively narrower. A century ago there may have been no Leibniz, but there was a Gauss , a Faraday , and a Darwin . Today there are few scholars who can call themsel ves mathematicians or physicists or biologists without restriction. A man may be a topologist or an acoustician or a coleopterist. He will be filled with the jargon of his field , and will know all its literature and all its ram ifications, but, more frequently than not, he will regard the next subject as something belonging to his colleague three doors down the corridor, and will consider any interest in it on his own part as an unwarrantable breach of privacy. These specialized fields are continually growing and invading new territory. The result is like what occurred when the Oregon country was being invaded simultaneously by the United States settlers, the British, the Mexicans, and the Russians- an inextricable tangle of explorations, nomenclature, and laws. There are fields of scientific work, as we shall see in the body of this book, which have been explored from the different sides of pure mathematics, statistics, electirca l engineering, and neurophysiology; in which every single notion receives a separate name from each group, and in which important work has been triplicated or quadruplicated, while still other important work is delayed by the unavailability in one field o f results that may have already become classical in the next field.

Extractions: Norbert Wiener (1894-1964) worked in pure mathematics, but also used mathematics to pioneer statistical communication theory, and in collaboration with engineers and neurobiologists originated and elaborated the field of "cybernetics" (the study of "control and communication in the animal and the machine"). Wiener's work in the 1940s, related to cybernetics, constitutes one of the roots of modern "cognitive science." After World War II, anticipating the social and philosophical significance of cybernetic technologies, Wiener developed an important prescient philosophy of technology incorporating humane values. Nearly all his work shows the mark of a highly original mind. COMPUTATIONAL THEORY OF MIND

Extractions: Tools for Thought by Howard Rheingold April, 2000: a revised edition of Tools for Thought is available from MIT Press , including a revised chapter with 1999 interviews of Doug Engelbart, Bob Taylor, Alan Kay, Brenda Laurel, and Avron Barr. The idea that people could use computers to amplify thought and communication, as tools for intellectual work and social activity, was not an invention of the mainstream computer industry or orthodox computer science, nor even homebrew computerists; their work was rooted in older, equally eccentric, equally visionary, work. You can't really guess where mind-amplifying technology is going unless you understand where it came from. - HLR

Extractions: Wiener, Norbert (1894-1964), American mathematician and founder of cybernetics Wiener specialized in mathematics and mathematical physics. During World War II (1939-1945), while engaged in research on antiaircraft-defense techniques, he attempted to produce a mathematical and electronic system for communicating vital information. Through this work, he became interested in automatic computing and feedback theory. He thus founded the science of cybernetics, which deals not only with the automatic control of machinery by computers and other electronic devices, but also the study of the human brain and nervous system and the relationship between the two communication and control systems. Wiener summarized his theories in Cybernetics (1948), and also wrote The Human Use of Human Beings (1950), Nonlinear Problems of Random Theory (1958), The Tempter (1959), and God and Golem, Inc. (1964).

Extractions: COMPUTERS US mathematician, credited with the establishment of the science of cybernetics in his book Cybernetics 1948. In mathematics, he laid the foundation of the study of stochastic processes (those dependent on random events), particularly Brownian motion. Wiener devoted much of his efforts to methodology, developing mathematical approaches that could usefully be applied to continuously changing processes. During World War II, Wiener worked on the control of anti-aircraft guns (which required him to consider factors such as the machinery itself, the gunner, and the unpredictable evasive action on the part of the target's pilot), on filtering 'noise' from useful information for radar, and on coding and decoding. His investigations stimulated his interest in information transfer and processes such as information feedback.
