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.
