I'm about halfway through "The Information..." by James Glieck
I've had it on my to-read list for a while now but am finally knuckling down and reading it.

http://www.amazon.com/Information-Hi...tt_at_ep_dpt_1

Great book, particularly for those interested in the history of the science of "information"

Much of it is a review of sorts for me as I've studied this topic for a couple of decades but still very interesting.

UPDATE: Finished this. Highly recommended I give it 4/5 (but only because I was already familiar with a lot of what was presented)
