Sobre este libro
Beside lucid accounts of cutting-edge information theory we get hilarious anecdotes and jokes; instructions for running a truly impressive pyramid scam as well as a new religious hoax; a freewheeling conversation between Groucho Marx and Bertrand Russell; explanations of why the mundane facts of the O. J. Simpson case are overwhelmingly incriminating; how the Unabomber's thinking shows signs of mathematical training; why we're much more likely to feel aggrieved than aggrieving; and dozens of other treats.
