Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. A very good clean copy. An eager, ambitious book. A stimulating, accessible introduction to scientific theory." ? ? Dallas Morning News " An enjoyably quick-paced interdisciplinary survey of the outer limits of scientific thought." ? ? Kirkus Reviews " Siegfried weaves a provocative and convincing argument. . . . Recommended for an informed audience." ? ? Library Journal " An excellent introduction to the myriad small worlds that can be teased out of our big one." ? ? Publishers Weekly " A volume of remarkable sweep." ? ? Booklist Now in paperback, The Bit and the Pendulum explores the radical idea at the center of the new physics of information: everything in the universe, from the molecules in our bodies to the heart of a black hole, is made up of bits of information.Award-winning author Tom Siegfried interviews top scientists- all using " bits" to solve the seemingly unsolvable- and provides a high accessible introduction to a fundamentally new way of seeing the world. Lively, engaging, and topical, The Bit and the Pendulum shows how the computer and the " bit" are revealing secrets of the brain, the nature of matter, and the workings of the universe.
