I am a happy camper. Today’s mail brought with it a copy of a very special book. It is the 1960 Yearbook of the Society for General Systems Research edited by Ludwig von Bertalanffy and Anatol Rapoport. It contains the seminal article by Bill Powers and his co-authors, Richard Clark and Richard McFarland titled “A General Feedback Theory of Human Behavior: Part 1.”
To my surprise, it is a reprint from “Perceptual and Motor Skills, Monograph Supplement I-VII, 1960.”
Whoever owned this book, someone with the last name Mullins, did some serious underlining in this paper. Fortunately, it’s very light.
But, on the bright side, I now have a copy of this important publication. Yea!
Oops. I should have said Robert, not Richard. Interestingly, the paper is in two parts with the first part being a reprint. Does anyone know if there is a copy of this book in the Northwestern collection?
