Uncertainty, Randomness and Control

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book aims to thoroughly examine noise's conceptual potencies and explore and amplify its epistemic consequences. The author explores the prospect of different "contextures" of a present made volatile by noise. Given our capacity to create robust, adaptable social systems, we need better control uncertainty, randomness, and noise.
