First published in 1958, John von Neumann's classic work The
Computer and the Brain explored the analogies between computing
machines and the living human brain. Von Neumann showed that the
brain operates both digitally and analogically, but also has its
own unique statistical language. And more than fifty years after
its inception the von Neumann architecture - an organizational
framework for computer design - still lies at the heart of today's
machines. In his foreword to this new edition, Ray Kurzweil, a
futurist famous for his own musings on the relationship between
technology and consciousness, places von Neumann's work in a
historical context and shows how it remains relevant today.
