1. Cybernetics: The beginnings, the founding articles and the first meetings -- 2. Cybernetics: The book, the club and the decline -- 3. Pre-cybernetic context -- 4. Cybernetic tenets: Philosophical considerations -- 5. Extending the scope of a machine ontology. -- 6. Emphasizing the limits of a machine epistemology -- 7. Cybernetic tensions: Further philosophical considerations -- 8. The rise of Emerging Technologies -- 9. Transhumanist technologies: New possibilities for a cybernetic worldview.

This book is a philosophical exploration of the theoretical causes behind the collapse of classical cybernetics. Alcibiades Malapi-Nelson advances the idea that the cybernetic understanding of the nature of a machine entails ontological and epistemological consequences that create both material and theoretical conundrums. He proposes that, given our current state of materials, research, and practices, there might be a way for cybernetics to flourish. The book starts with a historical treatment of cybernetics, and proceeds with a philosophical explanation of its collapse--emphasizing the work of Turing, Ashby and von Neumann--and connects it with the emerging technologies carrying its signature. The transhumanist metaphysics of both cybernetics and NBIC is then unveiled. Finally, avenues of research that may allow these technologies to circumvent the cybernetic fate are indicated. It is advanced that emerging technologies ultimately entail an affirmation of humanity.
