This collection addresses the application of the principles of cybernetics to the methodology of assessment of function in children. The authors suggest that an awareness of the issues of control and informational feedback exemplified by cybernetics leads to new ways of thinking about both the process of gathering data and the type of data sought.

Mark N. Ozer is associate professor of child health and development at the George Washington University School of Medicine. In his private practice he treats children with developmental problems and a wide range of neurological diseases.
