Information Flow: The Logic of Distributed Systems (Cambridge Tracts in Theoretical Computer Science)

Information is a central topic in computer science, cognitive science, and philosophy. Get Information Flow computer books for free.
In spite of its importance in the "information age," there is no consensus on what information is, what makes it possible, and what it means for one medium to carry information about another. Drawing on ideas from mathematics, computer science, and philosophy, this book addresses the definition and place of information in society. The authors, observing that information flow is possible only within a connected distribution system, provide a mathematically rigorous, philosophically sound foundation for a science of information. They illustrate their theory by applying it to a wide range of phenomena, from file transfer to DNA, from quantum mechanics to speech Check Information Flow our best computer books for 2013.
