Complexity, Entropy and the Physics of Information Paperback - 1990
by Wojciech H. Zurek
First line
This report reviews what quantum physics and information theory have to tell us about the age-old question.
From the rear cover
This book explores not only the connections between quantum and classical physics, information and its transfer, computation, and their significance for the formulation of physical theories, but it also considers the origins evolution of the information-processing entities, their complexity, and the manner in which they analyze their perceptions to form models of the Universe.

The (approximately 40) official participants as well as equally numerous "groupies" were enticed to Santa Fe by the above "manifesto." The book-like the "Complexity, Entropy and the Physics of Information" meeting explores not only the connections between quantum and classical physics, information and its transfer, computation, and their significance for the formulation of physical theories, but it also considers the origins and evolution of the information-processing entities, their complexity, and the manner in which they analyze their perceptions to form models of the Universe. As a result, the contributions can be divided into distinct sections only with some difficulty. Indeed, I regard this degree of overlapping as a measure of the success of the meeting. It signifies…
