This book provides a comprehensive description of a new method of proving the central limit theorem, through the use of apparently unrelated results from information theory. It brings together results from a number of research papers as well as unpublished material, showing how the techniques can give a unified view of limit theorems.
- Presents surprising, interesting connections between two apparently separate areas of mathematics
- Written by one of the researchers who discovered these connections
- Offers a new way of looking at familiar results
