		<description><![CDATA[A friend of mine recently reviewed a book chapter for me, in which I examined what lies behind the concept of information overload. She asked why I&#8217;d chosen not to touch on information entropy. My answer was simple and somewhere along the lines of: &#8220;Duh?&#8221; In the physics lab &#8220;entropy&#8221; is used to described certain [...]]]></description>
