Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver's The Mathematical Theory of Communication
Later printing of the "the magna carta of the information age" (Scientific American), Shannon's work provided "a mathematical guide for the system's engineers [at Bell Labs], a blueprint for how to move data around with optimal efficiency" (Gertner p.128). Octavo, original publisher's pictorial boards, illustrated with equations. In fine condition.
Scientific knowledge grows at a phenomenal pace--but few books have had as lasting an impact or played as important a role in our modern world as The Mathematical Theory of Communication, published originally as a paper on communication theory more than fifty years ago. Republished in book form shortly thereafter, it has since gone through four hardcover and sixteen paperback printings. It is a revolutionary work, astounding in its foresight and contemporaneity.
