[Xmca-l] Re: New book on Ilyenkov

[David Kellogg]

Andy, Alfredo--

The most intriguing thing about this book was the statement that Ilyenkov
fought against the introduction of ideas from cybernetics into psychology.
On the other side of the world, Gregory Bateson was fighting hard for their
inclusion.

I read through "The Ideal in Human Activity" a couple of times (true,
without understanding much of it). But I didn't see anything against
cybernetics. Am I missing something?
