John von Neumann, whose many contributions to science, mathematics, and engineering include the basic organizational framework at the heart of today's computers, concludes that the brain operates both digitally and analogically, but also has its own peculiar statistical language. In his foreword to this new edition, Ray Kurzweil, a futurist famous in part for his own reflections on the relationship between technology and intelligence, places von Neumann’s work in a historical context and shows how it remains relevant today.Country/Region of Manufacture: USAuthor: John von NeumannGenre: Language & ReferenceBook Series: Silliman Memorial Lectures SeriesTopic: Computing & InternetType: TextbookRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
