About This Item

Moscow: Sovetskaia Entsiklopediia, 1971. Second revised edition (approximately 20 000 terms); 5 x 8; pp. [9], 10-428; original beige boards; title in gilt and black; faint dust-dulling to covers; internally clean; small rubbed spot to head of spine; very good or better. The first edition of this English-Russian dictionary of automation and cybernetics was published in 1957. Interestingly enough, its printing marked a new era in the perception of the above-mentioned sciences. Until the early 50s, cybernetics was considered to be "a reactionary pseudoscience and a weapon of imperialist ideology." Though, the beginning of the Khrushchev's Thaw established that cybernetics was "an innocent victim of political oppression," thus allowing the evolvement of a movement for radical reform of Stalin's system of science. Gerovitch, Slava, From Newspeak to Cyberspeak: A History of Soviet Cybernetics.
