Uncommonly Good...The Most Satisfying Discussion To Be Found. Scientific American.Behind The Familiar Surfaces Of The Telephone, Radio, And Television Lies A Sophisticated And Intriguing Body Of Knowledge Known As Information Theory.

Even More Revolutionary Progress Is Expected In The Future.To Give A Solid Introduction To This Burgeoning Field, J. R. Pierce Has Revised His Wellreceived 1961 Study Of Information Theory For A Second Edition.

He Then Goes Beyond The Strict Confines Of The Topic To Explore The Ways In Which Information Theory Relates To Physics, Cybernetics, Psychology, And Art. Mathematical Formulas Are Introduced At The Appropriate Points For The Benefit Of Serious Students. A Glossary Of Terms And An Appendix On Mathematical Notation Are Proved To Help The Less Mathematically Sophisticated.J. R. Pierce Worked For Many Years At The Bell Telephone Laboratories, Where He Became Director Of Research In Communications Principles. His Introduction To Information Theory Continues To Be The Most Impressive Nontechnical Account Available And A Fascinating Introduction To The Subject For Lay Readers.
