The paper considers, in a preface and opening section, the scope and meaning of the term, cybernetics. In the defined context, cybernetics activities in England, Germany, France, Italy, the U.S.S.R., and several East European countries are discussed.

Three appendices provide: (a) tables of contents of translations of U.S.S.R. periodicals in cybernetics areas of interest, (b) a guide to JPRS serials on U.S.S.R. activities in cybernetics, and (c) a commentary on libraries, librarians, and document retrieval.
