Both induction and deduction, reasoning from the particular and the general, and back again from the universal to the specific, form the essence to scientific thinking.

If you don't understand something, break it apart; reduce it to its components. Since they are simpler than the whole,you have a much better chance of understanding them; and when you have succeeded in doing that, put the whole thing back together again.

Claude Shannon, the founder of information theory, invented a way to measure 'the amount of information' in a message without defining the word 'information' itself, nor even addressing the question of the meaning of the message.

If quantum communication and quantum computation are to flourish, a new information theory will have to be developed.

In order to understand information, we must define it; bit in order to define it, we must first understand it. Where to start?

The smell of subjectivity clings to the mechanical definition of complexity as stubbornly as it sticks to the definition of information.
