Reviews

[Lorenzo Stipani · Rating 2 out of 5]

Dated, by definition if read in 2021, however imprecise and non-fully persuasive.

Ok for a quick introduction to some cool ideas on the topic. Good the chapter on entropy and information, it gives exactly the mood experienced by someone first time encountering the Shannon's brainchild.

[David · Rating 3 out of 5]

Topics include information theory, theory of computation, and 1960s artificial intelligence. Waaaay dated.
