Information and Its Role in Nature presents an in-depth
interdisciplinary discussion of the concept of information and its
role in the control of natural processes. After a brief review of
classical and quantum information theory, the author addresses
numerous central questions, including: Is information reducible to
the laws of physics and chemistry? Does the Universe, in its
evolution, constantly generate new information? Or are information
and information-processing exclusive attributes of living systems,
related to the very definition of life? If so, what is the role of
information in classical and quantum physics? In what ways does
information-processing in the human brain bring about
self-consciousness? Accessible to graduate students and
professionals from all scientific disciplines, this stimulating
book will help to shed light on many controversial issues at the
heart of modern science.
