Very thorough and readable intro text July 22, 1999
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Cover and Thomas have written an excellent book on information theory. This book is suitable for an introductory type course but the entire book probably cannot be covered at once. All of the explanations and proofs are very understandable, although the section on types can be a tad confusing at times! I would not recommend this book to someone with a casual interest in information theory, rather to someone who wants a more rigorous treatment of the underlying mathematics.
Highly recommend August 20, 1998

I feel this is a very well written and organized overview of the most important aspects of information theory for both science and communications technology. The chapter on the theory of types is worth the price of admission alone!
