Science and Information Theory Brillouin LeonPaperback
A classic source for exploring the connections between information theory and physics, this text is geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students. A discussion of the negentropy principle of information introduces Brillouin's renowned examination of Maxwell's demon. The author, a giant of twentieth-century mathematics, applies the principles of information theory to a variety of issues, including Maxwell's demon, thermodynamics, and measurement problems.Author Leon Brillouin begins by defining and applying the term -information- and proceeds to explorations of the principles of coding, coding problems and solutions, the analysis of signals, a summary of thermodynamics, thermal agitation and Brownian motion, and thermal noise in an electric circuit.
Concluding chapters explore the associations between information theory, the uncertainty principle, and physical limits
