Cybernetics has been defined in a variety of ways, by a variety of people, from a variety of disciplines.

Cybernetician [[Stuart Umpleby]] reports some notable definitions:<ref name="LRReader">{{cite book |first = Stuart |last = Umpleby |authorlink=Stuart Umpleby |title = The Larry Richards Reader 1997–2007 |year=2008 |pages=9–11 |chapter-url = http://polyproject.wikispaces.com/file/view/Larry+Richards+Reader+6+08.pdf |chapter=Definitions of Cybernetics |quote = I developed this list of definitions/descriptions in 1987-88 and have been distributing it at ASC (American Society for Cybernetics) conferences since 1988. I added a few items to the list over the next two years, and it has remained essentially unchanged since then. My intent was twofold: (1) to demonstrate that one of the distinguishing features of cybernetics might be that it could legitimately have multiple definitions without contradicting itself, and (2) to stimulate dialogue on what the motivations (intentions, desires, etc.) of those who have proposed different definitions might be.}}</ref>

* "'The art of steersmanship': deals with all forms of behavior in so far as they are regular, or determinate, or reproducible: stands to the real machine -- electronic, mechanical, neural, or economic -- much as geometry stands to real object in our terrestrial space; offers a method for the scientific treatment of the system in which complexity is outstanding and too important to be ignored."—[[W. Ross Ashby]]
