About the book: year / “The Creator and the Robot” is the last book by the founder of cybernetics Norbert Wiener, published in 1964, shortly after the death of the author. It was created on the basis of popular lectures and is a short cycle of socio-philosophical essays, united by one internal theme. This theme - in a broad sense - is the relationship between the creator and his creation, between the creative powers of man and the cybernetic machine created by his genius.
