The Philosophy of Information

Beschreibung

Luciano Floridi presents a book that will set the agenda for the philosophy of information -- the study of the nature of information and the development of information-theoretic and computational methodologies for philosophy. It revitalizes old philosophical questions, poses new problems, and it has already produced a wealth of important results.
