An Introduction to Information Theory: Symbols, Signals and Noise

quite an interesting list of books for 2025. I’ll have to get some of these to read. Especially the Information theory one above and the one you mentioned in your review.

1. Differential Privacy (2025) by Simson Garfinkel A readable but thorough introduction to differential privacy. 2. Tales of the Weird: An Uncanny Introduction (2023) A collection of short stories from the British Library to introduce the many flavors of weird fiction. 3. An Introduction to Information Theory: Symbols, Signals and Noise (1980) by John R. Pierce A fun survey of information theory with great anecdotes about Bell Labs in mid-century.
