Wiener is guilty of plagrimism and assimilating work of Alexander Bogdanov, and put it in service of the builders of the panotpticon during the cold war:</div><div><br>"<span style="font-family:Fd5269-Identity-H;font-size:8pt">This is one of the fundamental documents of our time, a period
characterized by the concepts of 'information' and 'communications'. Norbert Wiener, a child prodigy and a great mathematician,
coined the term 'cybernetics' to characterize a very general science
of 'control and communication in the animal and machine'. It
brought together concepts from engineering, the study of the
nervous system and statistical mechanics (e.g. entropy). From these
he developed concepts that have become pervasive through science
(especially biology and computing) and common parlance: 'in
formation', 'message', 'feedback' and 'control'. He wrote, 'the
thought of every age is reflected in its technique . . . If the
seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries are the age of clocks,
and the later eighteenth and nineteenth centuries constitute the age
of steam engines, the present time is the age of communication and
control.'
