One of the lost classics of French philosophy, Cybernetics and the Origin of Information has never before been published in English. Raymond Ruyerwho was a major influence on Simondon and Deleuze, among othersoriginally wrote this book, one of the first critiques of Norbert Wieners cybernetics program, in 1954. At once critical and analytical, it is a deep exploration of information theory, cybernetics, and the philosophical assumptions and implications of both. Among the themes covered in the book are the main types of information machines, informations relationship to 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. A true hidden gem in the history of philosophical thought, this text will help readers understand foundational criticisms of ideas that have led to artificial intelligence.

Arvustused

This book should be read by anyone interested in cybernetics, information theory, and the philosophy of information. In it, Ruyer critically distances himself from classic approaches to automation and information, which will shape the development of information and communication technologies in the following decades. His philosophical discussion is balanced and insightful, often anticipating much later debates, and when the history of the philosophy of information will be written, Ruyers work and this book will undoubtedly deserve a chapter. The translators must be congratulated for making this volume available in English, in an accessible and reliable translation. -- Luciano Floridi, professor of philosophy and ethics of information, University of Oxford and professor of sociology of culture and communication, University of Bologna

Today his works are being rediscovered by a new generation, both in France and beyond.
