Alexander Aleksandrovich Bogdanov (1873 to 1928), born Alexander Malinovsky, was a Russian and later Soviet physician, philosopher, science fiction writer and Bolshevik revolutionary. The article calls him a polymath who pioneered blood transfusion as well as general systems theory, and who made important contributions to cybernetics. In medicine he is therefore recorded as an early worker on transfusion, while in politics he co-founded the Bolsheviks in 1903, rivalled Vladimir Lenin, and was expelled from the faction in 1909 after Lenin attacked his philosophy in Materialism and Empiriocriticism. This is the medical facet of a person who also appears in other atlases for his philosophy and politics; this entry is not medical advice.
