Rebel genius: Warren S. McCulloch's transdisciplinary life in science

See all formats and editions

Warren S. McCulloch (1898-1969) has become an icon of the American cybernetics movement and of current work in the cognitive neurosciences.

Much of this legacy stems from his classic 1943 work with Walter Pitts on the logic of neural networks, and from his colourful role as chairman of the Macy Conferences on Cybernetics (1946-1953).

This biographical work looks beyond McCulloch's iconic status by exploring the varied scientific, personal, and institutional contexts of McCulloch's life.
