In order to achieve our goal, we observe how information is understood in domains, such as cosmology, physics, biology, neuroscience, computer science, artificial intelligence, the Internet, big data, information society, or philosophy. Together, these observations form an integrated view so that readers can better understand this exciting building-block of modern-day society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\nOn the surface, information is a relatively straightforward and intuitive concept. Underneath, however, information is a relatively versatile and mysterious entity. For instance, the way a physicist looks at information is not necessarily the same way as that of a biologist, a neuroscientist, a computer scientist, or a philosopher. Actually, when it comes to information, it is common that each field has its domain specific views, motivations, interpretations, definitions, methods, technologies, and challenges.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith contributions by authors from a wide range of backgrounds, \u003ci\u003eUnderstanding Information: From the Big Bang to Big Data\u003c\/i\u003e will appeal to readers interested in the impact of ‘information’ on modern-day life from a variety of perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2017-08-04\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319590899\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-59090-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 237\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45379126001804,"sku":"9783319590899","price":143.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319590899.jpg?v=1776434487","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319590899","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
