A. Hey edited „Feynman Lectures on Computation” for publication and later collected some assorted papers of guest lecturers Feynman would invite in „Feynman and computation – exploring the limits of computers”. This „It from bit” paper by Wheeler (Feynman’s advisor) is the 19th there.


I really would like to know the name of the book from which this index is. It's super interesting and I really want to read that book. Please let me know once you find it. Sincerely,


Book already referenced by GP, click your links. These are old classic conference proceedings edited by Zurek https://archive.org/details/ComplexityEntropyAndThePhysicsOf... but it’s a mixed bag unless you really fancy EG quantum field theorist’s opinions on workings of visual cortex.


Thanks for posting it! It's unfortunate that the entry doesn't include the ISBN number [0], and that it consequently doesn't turn up when searching for that number

[0] I consider "ISBN number" to be a reasonable expression, with the interpretation "the number that goes by the name _ISBN_".
