Abstract

Cybernetics is a powerful unifying concept. It can break down the barriers existing within technology itself, as well as those dividing science from technology. But these barriers are ultimately symbols of general cultural attitudes and consequently a general change of attitude will also be needed. This general change must be achieved through education and the development of the interdisciplinary science of cybernetics.
