Science has taught us that what we see and touch is not what is really there.

The problem of defining exactly what is meant by the signal velocity, which cropped up as long ago as 1907, has not been solved.

If the intensity of the material world is plotted along the horizontal axis, and the response of the human mind is on the vertical, the relation between the two is represented by the logarithmic curve. Could this rule provide a clue to the relationship between the objective measure of information, and our subjective perception of it?

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.

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

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.
