Cybernetics
is the interdisciplinary science dealing with communication and control
systems in living organisms, machines and organizations. The term
was derived from the Greek word kybernetes (“steersman”
or “governor”). It was first applied in 1948 to the theory
of control mechanisms by the American mathematician Norbert Wiener
(1894-1964). Cybernetics is founded on principles of mathematics and
logic. |

| A: |
1. Characters in the context of relations are considered
to be neither good nor bad but simply as compatible or incompatible.
2. No character is universally incompatible. A character,
which is incompatible with one partner, may be perfectly compatible
with another partner having a different character.
3. Character differences between two people may
wax and wane according to individual character development.
4. Character differences may only be completely
eliminated by finding another partner who possesses a compatible
character.
5. Knowledge of a partner’s character does
not eliminate character differences but facilitates gaining an
understanding of the basis for their decisions. Partners may not
be appeased but they may be at peace with their differences.
6. Struggling with incongruous characters will not resolve the differences but magnify them.

| A: |
1. The balance of energy in every system is in a
constant state of flux. Every human has an overabundance of energy
at the beginning of life. This energy is utilized to maintain
the trajectory of development.
2. This energy is a
finite quantity. It may eventually be depleted. When the energy
of the system is exactly balanced at point zero, the individual
is expending the same amount of energy that they consume. When
the organism is experiencing an energy deficit it is possible
to recharge the system with energy from the environment without
the organism having to process it by implementing sociological
power or position. |
