A Near Fine, three-fourths of a set, in near fine dust jackets. Lacks Vol. IV: Cybernetics, Science, and Society; Ethics, Aesthetics, and Literary Criticism; Book Reviews and Obituaries (1986, ISBN: 0262231239, in print at US$120; the other volumes are out of print). 'Norbert Wiener's scientific contributions not only spanned numerous branches of mathematics but also mathematical philosophy, quantum mechanics and relativity theory, and the field he christened 'cybernetics' - a synthesis of communication and control engineering, the physiology of the heart and the nervous system, brain wave encephalography, and sensory prosthesis. His scholarly work also included incisive social, education, and literary essays. The object of these volumes of Collected Works is not only to reprint all of Wiener's scientific and scholarly papers but also to place them in the context of present-day research by means of commentaries written by contemporary authorities that trace both their genesis and their influence on subsequent work. Commentaries on the papers in Volume III were written by E. J. Akutowicz, D. Bohm, G. Freud, Sir Dennis Gabor, A. E. Heins, T. Hida, E. Hille, T. Kailath, G. Kallianpur, M. Kanter, P. Masani, L. T. McAuley, P. S. Muhly, E. Nelson, J. Pincus, E. E. Robinson, H. Salehi, A Siegel, A. H. Taub, and M. S. Vallarta. . . . P. Masani, editor of the Collected Works, is University Professor of Mathematics at the University of Pittsburg and a former collaborator of Wiener' (MIT Press Web site).
