This book describes information flow in terms of electromagnetism. In particular, a metaphorm is created between information flow and the flow of electrical charge. From this essential relationship, other relationships are derived which culminate in an equation for intelligence in terms of the instantaneous information rate in a communication process. As a consequence, information rate is equivalent to energy as a conserved quantity within closed systems.

The author Louis Houston is currently a research scientist at the Louisiana Accelerator Center at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and has been in academia for seventeen years. Prior to academia, the author was a research geophysicist for Exxon. He has three degrees, including a PhD in physics from Rice University in Houston, Texas. His work has been focussed on imaging problems in seismic theory. The author has a diverse range of interests which include painting and music. In both of these areas, the author has worked professionally. He has a strong interest in quantum mechanics and information theory, but also has interests in philosophy, including Eastern philosophy. The author has always treasured the pursuit of knowledge and the support of family members and close friends. Communication is considered to be very important and is a primary motivation for writing. The author lives in Youngsville, Louisiana and commutes regularly to Lafayette, Louisiana to work and to visit his mother. He has two sisters and maintains a close relationship with both. Music is an important factor. When he is not listening to music, the author entertains himself on guitar. He has personally produced several C.D.s of original music.
