Abstract

Control theory arose in two fields, biology and engineering. At the time when biologists were first beginning to formulate some of the concepts of control theory in a descriptive and qualitative manner, engineers already had made considerable progress in developing and applying quantitative methods. However, these two lines of development did not mingle until the 1940’s. It now appears that control theory will be one of the major conceptual frameworks for biological research in the near future.
