      abstract = {This book examines some of the underlying processes behind  different forms of information management, including how we  store information in our brains, the impact of new  technologies such as computers and robots on our efficiency  in storing information, and how information is stored in  families and in society. The editors brought together  experts from a variety of disciplines. While it is  generally agreed that information reduces uncertainties and  that the ability to store it safely is of vital importance,  these authors are open to different meanings of  "information": computer science considers the bit as the  information block; neuroscience emphasizes the importance  of information as sensory inputs that are processed and  transformed in the brain; theories in psychology focus more  on individual learning and on the acquisition of knowledge;  and finally sociology looks at how interpersonal processes  within groups or society itself come to the fore. The book  will be of value to researchers and students in the areas  of information theory, artificial intelligence, and  computational neuroscience.},
