Theoretical information studies: information in the world / edited by Mark Burgin and Gordana Dodig-Crnkovic - Bangolore : World scientific, 2020. - 536 p. 22.9 cm.

Includes bibliographical reference (p. 510-511)

The text introduces a groundbreaking book titled "Theoretical Information Studies: Information in the World." This book is a pioneering effort to establish a unified theoretical framework for the study of information as a fundamental phenomenon across various domains, including nature, technology, individuals, and society. The book delves into the exploration of information through the lens of info-computational approaches. This interdisciplinary perspective allows for a comprehensive understanding of information's role in diverse fields like bioinformatics, information physics, informational chemistry, computational physics, cognitive science, and social science. By fostering collaboration among researchers from various disciplines, the book aims to develop a more robust theoretical foundation for information studies. This collaborative approach enables a deeper exploration of information's dynamics, such as computation and communication, as they manifest at different organizational levels, scales, and contexts.
