"Taking as his point of departure Norbert Weiners statement that information is basic to understanding materialism in our era, Ronald Schleifer shows how discoveries of modern physics have altered conceptions of matter and energy and the ways in which both information theory and the study of literature can enrich these conceptions. Expanding the reductive notion of the material as simply matter and energy, he formulates a new, more inclusive idea of materialism."--Back cover.
