The human use of human beings cybernetics and society This edition was published in 1950 by Houghton Mifflin in Boston. A simple and unconventional book that teaches you how to reduce your exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and use wireless technologies safely. Throughout history, human beings have been used by other humans as components of economic and technological systems; indeed, Aristotle thought of human slaves as “living tools.” Not only human physical labor, but also mental labor, can be exploited in technological systems.
