On the Nature of Models: Let us Now Praise Famous Men and Women, from Warren McCulloch to Candace Pert
نویسنده
چکیده
Warren was a philosopher and scientist. As a freshman at Haverford College he told the Quaker philosopher Rufus Jones that all he wanted to know was: "What is a number that a man may know it; and a man, that he may know a number?"

Warren acknowledged in his last days that the prophecy had been fulfilled, and had helped him to invent cybernetics on the way.
