I am a mathematician

Norbert Wiener's autobiography provides insights into the intellectual journey that led to his groundbreaking work in cybernetics, offering a personal perspective on the development of his ideas in this field.

While written by a mathematician, the book focuses more on Wiener's life experiences and the philosophical underpinnings of his thought, making it engaging for readers interested in intellectual history and the human side of scientific discovery, even without a deep mathematical background.
