*How to Win an Information War * - The Propagandist Who Outwitted Hitler: BBC R4 Book of the Week / 31.99€ / MP3 Hörbuch

Pomerantsev is emerging as the pre-eminent war reporter of our time. Observer From one of our leading experts on disinformation, the incredible true story of the complex and largely forgotten WWII propagandist Sefton Delmer - and what we can learn from him today. In the summer of 1941, Hitler ruled Europe from the Atlantic to the Black Sea. Britain was struggling to combat the powerful Nazi propaganda machine, which crowed victory and smeared its enemies. But inside Germany, there was one notable voice of dissent from the very heart of the military machine, Der Chef, a German whose radio broadcasts skilfully questioned Nazi doctrine. He had access to high-ranking German military secrets and spoke of internal rebellion. His listeners included German soldiers and citizens. American officials and even the President tried to to decipher what it meant for the future of the war. But what these audiences didn't know was that Der Chef was a fiction, a character created by the British propagandist Sefton Delmer, just one player in Delmer's vast counter-propaganda cabaret, a unique weapon in the war. As author Peter Pomerantsev uncovers Delmer's story, he is called into a wartime propaganda effort of his own: the global response to Putin's invasion of Ukraine. This book is the story of Delmer and his modern-day investigator, as they each embark on their own quest to seduce and inspire the passions of supporters and enemies, and to turn the tide of information wars.

Blut, Treibstoff, Lebensprinzip - in seinem furiosen Buch erzählt Bestsellerautor James Gleick, wie die Information zum Kernstück unserer heutigen Zivilisation wurde. Beginnend bei den Wörtern, den "sprechenden" Trommeln in Afrika, über das Morsealphabet und bis hin zur Internetrevolution beleuchtet er, wie die Übermittlung von Informationen die Gesellschaften prägten und veränderten. Gleick erläutert die Theorien, die sich mit dem Codieren und Decodieren, der Übermittlung von Inhalten und dem Verbreiten der Myriaden von Botschaften beschäftigen. Er stellt die bekannten und unbekannten Pioniere der Informationsgesellschaft vor: Claude Shannon, Norbert Wiener, Ada Byron, Alan Turing und andere. Er bietet dem Leser neue Einblicke in die Mechanismen des Informationsaustausches. So lernt dieser etwa die sich selbst replizierende Meme kennen, die "DNA" der Informationen. Sein Buch ermöglicht ein neues Verständnis von Musik, Quantenmechanik - und eine gänzlich neue Sicht auf die faszinierende Welt der Informationen.

Luciano Floridi presents an innovative approach to philosophy, conceived as conceptual design. He explores how we make, transform, refine, and improve the objects of our knowledge. His starting point is that reality provides the data, to be understood as constraining affordances, and we transform them into information, like semantic engines. Such transformation or repurposing is not equivalent to portraying, or picturing, or photographing, or photocopying anything. It is more like cooking: the dish does not represent the ingredients, it uses them to make something else out of them, yet the reality of the dish and its properties hugely depend on the reality and the properties of the ingredients. Models are not representations understood as pictures, but interpretations understood as data elaborations, of systems. Thus, he articulates and defends the thesis that knowledge is design and philosophy is the ultimate form of conceptual design. Although entirely independent of Floridi's previous books, The Philosophy of Information (OUP 2011) and The Ethics of Information (OUP 2013), The Logic of Information both complements the existing volumes and presents new work on the foundations of the philosophy of information.

*Information for the Million * / 1.1€ / MP3 Hörbuch

Recently, quantum information theory has been developing through a fusion of results from various research fields. This requires that understanding of basic results on diverse topics, and derived from different disciplinary perspectives, is required for appreciating the overall picture. Intended to merge key topics from both the information-theoretic and quantum- mechanical viewpoints, this graduate-level textbook provides a unified viewpoint of quantum information theory and lucid explanations of those basic results, so that the reader fundamentally grasps advances and challenges. For example, advanced topics in quantum communication such as quantum teleportation, superdense coding, quantum state transmission (quantum error-correction), and quantum encryption especially benefit from this unified approach. Unlike earlier treatments, the text requires knowledge of only linear algebra, probability theory, and quantum mechanics, while it treats the topics of quantum hypothesis testingand the discrimination of quantum states, and quantum channel coding (message transmission) with the minimal amount of math needed to convey their essence. Solving the more than 240 exercises provides readers with practice that not only enriches their knowledge of quantum information theory, but also can equip them with the techniques necessary for pursuing their own research in this field.

Organizations today have access to vast stores of data that come in a wide variety of forms and may be stored in places ranging from file cabinets to databases, and from library shelves to the Internet. The enormous growth in the quantity of data, however, has brought with it growing problems with the quality of information, further complicated by the struggles many organizations are experiencing as they try to improve their systems for knowledge management and organizational memory. Failure to manage information properly, or inaccurate data, costs businesses billions of dollars each year. This volume presents cutting-edge research on information quality. Part I seeks to understand how data can be measured and evaluated for quality. Part II deals with the problem of ensuring quality while processing data into information a company can use. Part III presents case studies, while Part IV explores organizational issues related to information quality. Part V addresses issues in information quality education.

This book gives an overview for practitioners and students of quantum physics and information science. Unlike other books in quantum information and computing, this book is intended to be concise and to the point. This makes it useful in practical context of reading journal articles, performing research calculations or problems in graduate courses in physics and engineering. It is designed to provide ready access to essential information on quantum information processing and communication, such as definitions, protocols and algorithms. Quantum information science is a rapidly expanding area of technology and research containing a diverse spectrum of mathematical tools rarely found in clear and concise form. This book brings together this information from its various sources. It allows researchers and students in a broad range of areas to have this vital material directly at hand when needed. This is made possible by a concise and thorough format.

"Dear Sir: My object in writing to you is to have you give me a full history of Nevada. What is the character of its climate? What are the productions of the earth? Is it healthy? What diseases do they die of mostly? Do you think it would be advisable for a man who can make a living in Missouri to emigrate to that part of the country? There are several of us who would emigrate there in the spring if we could ascertain to a certainty that it is a much better country than this. I suppose you know Joel H. Smith? He used to live here; he lives in Nevada now; they say he owns considerable in a mine there. Hoping to hear from you soon, etc., I remain yours, truly, William --." The letter was handed in to a newspaper office for reply...

In diesem Beitrag gehen wir der Natur und dem Wesen der Information aus gegenwärtiger wissenschaftlicher und erkenntnistheoretischer Sicht nach. Wir verfolgen dabei die These, dass Information nicht nur für das Verständnis vom Aufbau der Welt grundlegend ist, sondern auch fundamentale Bedeutung für den physikalischen Aufbau der Welt hat. Dies erfolgt auf der Basis der Frage nach dem Realen, d. h. der Rolle der Information als wirklichkeitsschaffendes Phänomen für den wahrnehmenden Menschen, und dem heutigen wissenschaftlichen Verständnis dazu. Vier Stränge naturwissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisbildung werden dabei verfolgt: Zunächst konzentrieren wir uns auf die Informationstheorie und auf die Thermodynamik. Wichtige Aspekte der Quantenphysik und des Quanten-Computing sowie schließlich Aspekte der Evolution und der Genetik bilden die beiden weiteren Stränge. Dabei berücksichtigen wir auch Denkansätze, die der Information als physikalisches Phänomen eine Bedeutung zuweisen. Die naturwissenschaftlichen Gesichtspunkte werden um einen Diskurs über relevante Aspekte von Statistik und Logik ergänzt. Statistik repräsentiert Information unter Einbeziehung des Aspekts Zufall und bildet in der Quantenphysik den Weg zur Beschreibung des Realen. Eine Ergänzung der klassischen Logik durch die sogenannte intuitionistische Logik basiert auf der Nachvollziehbarkeit von Aussagen bzw. der repräsentierten Information. Damit erhält die Information durch die Konstruktion aus ihrer Repräsentation eine wahrnehmbare Realität. Als wesentliches Ergebnis wird gezeigt, dass Information als neue „Quintessenz“ (in Anlehnung an die Quintessentia der Antike) verstanden werden kann, die nicht nur in das Bild der Naturwissenschaften und der Philosophie passt, sondern deren Wesen auch das Verständnis zur Verbindung zwischen der erfahrbaren Natur und der nicht verstehbaren Natur - weil unserem klassischem Naturverständnis entzogen - zu erfassen hilft.
