## Description

desertcart.com: An Introduction to Information Theory (Dover Books on Mathematics): 9780486682105: Reza, Fazlollah M., Reza, Fazlollah M.: Books

Review: A great and detailed introduction into the Information Theory - This book represents an indispensable source (also hand-book-like one !!!) for scientific research and engineering workers, both beginners, students and real experienced colleagues. The book clearly reveals the roots of the information theory which sometimes remain hidden in the modern probability theory ... Interestingly, both discrete and continuous information-carrying signals are considered in detail which enables the readership to reconstruct the whole building of the statistical theory of coding and communications. The book is also of extreme interest for physicists-chemists, since it pays a lot of attention to the notion of Shannon's Entropy, which is widely used in the modern physics ... In short, I might heartily recommend reading this book !
Review: The best book for beginners - This book is the best, like introduction in the theory information. The examples are great, the analogies with the circuit are helpful. The review of mathematical backgrounds, in special the statistical, the theorems, permit a good comprehension. The new books in this topic are bad, because they separate the aplications and the theory, don't waste your money in them!
