I'm a pretty confused on how this all ties together. Are these these deep dives on examples on information theory? Would love some perspective that knows more on the topic.

It's an introduction to the fundamental concepts of information theory (entropy, KL divergence, conditional entropy), using 20 questions as an ongoing source of example applications and interpretations of these concepts. The author also sprinkles in various interpretations coming from their own research focus (the social sciences).

Definitely not a deep dive. The details can probably be found by chasing down the citations.

Awesome thanks so much
