Part of the SFI Press’s Archive series, making affordable editions of past Santa Fe Institute publications globally available, Complexity, Entropy, and the Physics of Information emerged from a 1989 SFI meeting of the same name organized by editor Wojciech H. Zurek. This two-volume reprint not only explores the connections between quantum and classical physics, information and its transfer, computation, and their significance for the formulation of physical theories, but also considers the origins and evolution of information-processing entitles, their complexity, and the manner in which they analyzed their perceptions to form models of the universe. Information, physics, complexity, quantum, and computation all meet in these 16 essays from contributors such as Murray Gell-Mann, James B. Hartle, Tommaso Toffoli, and L. A. Khalfin.
