I enjoyed this article a lot. Shannon’s work was useful to me scientifically when I attempted to apply his ideas on information and signal to bacterial species and metabolic diversity in marine snails. I have no idea if this made any sense, but I could see the value and applicability of his ideas to other fields. I’m not mathematically minded so much, but the concepts shone through to me.
