Das Werk stellt die Systematik der Fertigungsmesstechnik ausgehend von der Prüfplanung über die Prüfdatenerfassung bis hin zur Prüfdatenauswertung vor. Dem Leser wird damit einerseits das Basiswissen zum Verständnis der vorgestellten Verfahren und zu deren praktischem Einsatz vermittelt. Andererseits wird auch die grundsätzliche Bedeutung der Fertigungsmesstechnik für die Qualitätssicherung in produzierenden Unternehmen erläutert. Für die 3. Auflage wurden ein Abschnitt zu miniaturisierten optischen Messsystemen und ein Kapitel zu röntgentomografischen Messverfahren aufgenommen.

Die Beiträge des Sammelbandes befassen sich mit zentralen Themen der Kybernetik: Was ist Kybernetik überhaupt? Wie können wir sie nutzen und wo können wir sie einsetzen? Die Autoren zeigen, dass unser Digitalzeitalter von umfassenden technologischen Neuerungen, komplexer Vernetzung und schnellen Innovationszyklen gekennzeichnet ist, die sich klassischen Beschreibungsmodellen und traditionellen Regelungsmechanismen entziehen. Immer vielfältiger interagierende Strukturen erfordern neue Methoden, um diese Komplexität zu beschreiben und zu gestalten. Hochkarätige WissenschaftlerInnen verschiedenster Fachgebiete erläutern die Kybernetik aus Sicht ihrer jeweiligen Disziplin.
