25. Norbert Wiener, the founder of cybernetics, wrote that Cholmogorov's thoughts were
the same as his ideas and he knew that Cholmogorov had independently analysed some
principal questions in mathematics connected with cybernetics and had been the first to
publish the results. Weiner also mentioned many Russian mathematicians in his books with
the only aim — to attract attention to his new ideas. But he could not imagine the impression
and exitation his ideas had made upon the scientists all over the world!
26. John Leslie, a professor of philosophy tried to estimate the probabilities of the end of
the world, the Apocalypse. His list is rather sobering: Risks already well recognized
: 1.
Nuclear war. 2. Biological warfare. 3. Chemical warfare. 4. Destruction of the ozone layer. 5.
Greenhouse effect. 6. Poisoning by pollution. 7. Disease. Risks often unrecognized — Group
First: Natural disasters — 1. Volcanic eruptions. 2. Hits by asteroids and comets. 3. Extreme
ice age due to passage through an interstellar cloud. 4.Nearby supernova. 5. Other massive
astronomical explosions. 6. Essentially unpredictable breakdown of a complex system. 7.
Something-we-know-not-what. Group Two: Manmade disasters: 1. Unwillingness to rear
children. 2. Disaster from genetic engineering. 3. Disaster from nanotechnology. 4. Disasters
connected with computers. 5. Disaster from some other branch of technology, perhaps just
agricultural which had become crucial to human survival. 6. Production of a new big bang in
the laboratory. 7. Possible production of an alldestroying phase transition. 8. Annihilation by
extraterrestrials. 9. Something-we-know-not-what. Risks from philosophy. These include:
threats associated with religions; Schopenhauerian pessimism; negative utilitarianism; and the
prisoner's dilema (The Times Higher, 13.09.1996.).
27. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) an outstanding American politician and scientist was
the first to introduce the terms "plus", "minus", "positive", "negative" electricity. He invented
devices known as "battery" and "lightening-rod".
