Difference between first edition and following?[edit]

In Brockman's "Possible Minds" he mentions: "Although the first edition was a major bestseller [...] under pressure from his peers Wiener brought out a revised and milder edition in 1954, from which the original concluding chapter, 'Voices of Rigidity,' is conspicuously absent." Describing the difference would make a nice edition to this page, especially if more information could be found on why he made the changes. -- William Pietri (talk) 17:37, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
