    and corruption. It has so far published more than 10 million documents
    and associated analyses.
    • WikiLeaks has contractual relationships and secure communications
    paths to more than 100 major media organizations from around the world.
    This gives WikiLeaks sources negotiating power, impact and technical
    protections that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to achieve.

    ABOUT THIS BOOK


    Confronting us at every turn, flowing from every imaginable source, information defines our era--and yet
    what we don't know about it could--and does--fill a book. In this indispensable volume, a primer for the
    information age, Hans Christian von Baeyer presents a clear description of what information is, how
    concepts of its measurement, meaning, and transmission evolved, and what its ever-expanding presence
    portends for the future.

    Information is poised to replace matter as the primary stuff of the universe, von Baeyer suggests; it will
    provide a new basic framework for describing and predicting reality in the twenty-first century. Despite its
    revolutionary premise, von Baeyer's book is written simply in a straightforward fashion, offering a
    wonderfully accessible introduction to classical and quantum information. Enlivened with anecdotes from
    the lives of philosophers, mathematicians, and scientists who have contributed significantly to the field,
    Information conducts readers from questions of subjectivity inherent in classical information to the blurring
    of distinctions between computers and what they measure or store in our quantum age. A great advance in
    our efforts to define and describe the nature of information, the book also marks an important step forward
    in our ability to exploit information--and, ultimately, to transform the nature of our relationship with the
    physical universe.
