A classic source for exploring the connections between information theory and physics, this text is geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students. The author, a giant of twentieth-century mathematics, applies the principles of information theory to a variety of issues, including Maxwell's demon, thermodynamics, and measurement problems.
Author Leon Brillouin begins by defining and applying the term "information" and proceeds to explorations of the principles of coding, coding problems and solutions, the analysis of signals, a summary of thermodynamics, thermal agitation and Brownian motion, and thermal noise in an electric circuit. A discussion of the negentropy principle of information introduces Brillouin's renowned examination of Maxwell's demon. Concluding chapters explore the associations between information theory, the uncertainty principle, and physical limits of observation, in addition to problems related to computing, organizing information, and inevitable errors.

Great cable
With no other reviews I was a bit hesitant to buy this cable at first. I've seen so many other brands and sellers that sell cable that is half the gauge they claim. Or cable that is not totally copper and has tin or other poor metals in it. Especially at this low price I worried. I went ahead and bought some anyway though and figured I would chance it. For the amount of money I'd be saving it was worth it. If it wasn't as advertised I could just return it anyway. It arrived in a couple days. It is truly 1/0 AWG, and it is 100% copper. Strands packed dense but still flexible. Comes in a nice carry case. I crimped and soldered on some ends. Everything looks great and is working great. Would definitely recommend and would buy again.

Great wire.
Color: Black, Size: 15 feet
The flexibility is wonderful to work with. I used the red and black for a car audio application and it was a perfect choice for bending and snaking through the engine compartment and interior of the car. I have some just sitting on a bench and it still hasn't corroded and it's at least 3 years old. The insulation is very supple and has a nice feel to it and it carried current no problem of course.
