信息传
70多年前，这个星球上极为聪明和智慧的头脑，时常聚集在纽约比克曼酒店，讨论后工业时代层次的科学问题，其中包括冯·诺伊曼、图灵、维纳和香农等人。在一次讨论中作为信息史上划时代的杰出人物香农指出，信息的意义就在于消除对未知世界的不确定性，建立新时代的世界观和方法论。
从20世纪中期开始，信息成为衡量经济发展和科技进步简单而直接的指标，深刻影响和决定着我们的生活。我们能够说得出来的对人类产生巨大影响的发明创造，一大半都和信息有关，包括电报、电话、电影、无线电、大众传媒、计算机、移动通信、卫星技术、互联网等。可以讲，信息技术的发展历史，就是半部技术和商业进步的历史。
本书将信息的发展史分为自发和自觉两个阶段，对信息发展脉络进行了详细地梳理，为我们了解信息的本质和发展规律提供了一个全新的框架和视角。
理解信息不仅有助于我们在工作和生活中进行有效决策，也有助于我们理解未来经济发展的趋势。同时，书中讲述的成功的人、成功的做事方法，也能够为我们提供有益的借鉴和启发，让大家能够获得可重复性的成功和可叠加式的进步。

全书是对信息史的梳理，从电报发明前讲起，到信息学的奠基，再到后来的硅谷，我得以从另一个角度看待这段历史。
