The Birth of Information Theory
But why I am talking about superstring theory when I could be talking about a far greater theory?
Just came across a long expository paper which I really like, on the genesis of one of the great scientific papers of all time: Erico Marui Guizzo The Essential Message: Claude Shannon and the Making of Information Theory M.S. Thesis, Program in Writing and Humanistic Studies, MIT Highest reccomendation! Please note that IMO this should be readable by a general audience. Maybe there's hope for the future of science journalism yet?
