Inhaltsangabe

An innovative way to treat languages and systems, describing them as information structures, which allows for a comparative study of their properties, despite the obvious differences among their natures. To unveil some of the mysteries underlying all sort of languages ―from music to natural languages and from bi-dimensional graphical representations to the synthesis of mathematics― a wide range of representations and information transfer phenomena are described at several levels of detail. Languages, considered as the expression of complex systems, are analyzed by means of ingeniously developed algorithms and methods. A vast field for applications opens in front of these universal analysis tools, promising a dense learning time to come.
