Information is a recognized fundamental notion across the sciences
and humanities, which is crucial to understanding physical
computation, communication, and human cognition. The Philosophy of
Information brings together the most important perspectives on
information. It includes major technical approaches, while also
setting out the historical backgrounds of information as well as
its contemporary role in many academic fields. Also, special
unifying topics are high-lighted that play across many fields,
while we also aim at identifying relevant themes for philosophical
reflection. There is no established area yet of Philosophy of
Information, and this Handbook can help shape one, making sure it
is well grounded in scientific expertise. As a side benefit, a book
like this can facilitate contacts and collaboration among diverse
academic milieus sharing a common interest in information.
- First overview of the formal and technical issues involved in the
philosophy of information
- Integrated presentation of major mathematical approaches to
information, form computer science, information theory, and
logic
- Interdisciplinary themes across the traditional boundaries of
natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities.
