The Science of Information From Language to Black Holes Audible Audio Edition Benjamin Schumacher The Great Courses Books Reviews

• A very, very good course on information theory that is the wrong format. Read that again before you purchase this as an audiobook/audio course. It’s a clear, well constructed, thorough, detailed introduction to information theory using fundamental mathematical principles.
  
  It’s well produced and the audio is top quality. It just doesn’t work in audio if you are expecting to listen on your commute or in the gym. The math is not trivial. The topics are complex. Video would have helped in every way, for every explanation.
  
  So, if you want a college level introduction to info theory, this is it. If you can’t visualize theorems, functions, and equations, this is NOT for you.
