Cari Tutti, il concetto o significato di informazione è unico, quel che varia è il modo di qualificarlo o quantificarlo in ragione dei diversi tipi o categorie di informazione: naturale o termodinamica, genetica, semantica e matematica. E questo lo dico da studioso di economia della scienza o dell'esistenza, non da studioso di esistenza o della scienza economica. Un abbraccio, non solo fisico, ma anche emo-ra-zionale. Francesco
