This paper is included along with many more classics which are not publicly accessible on the Web. Also included are book reviews by Shannon, editorials he wrote and the text of the 3 US Patents he was granted. When you read in the introduction of textbooks and your professors tell you that you should 'study the original work of great mathematicians', they didn't mean that you should go and read one of Euler's 10,000 papers on infinite sums which don't use proper notation and are all in Latin or Swiss, they mean that you should grab this torrent and learn from Shannon. Essential for mathematicians, engineers, hackers and cryptographers. The list of all material included is here, and is taken from the complete bibliography available at: http://www2.research.att.com/~njas/doc/shannonbib.html 1. ``A Symbolic Analysis of Relay and Switching Circuits,'' Transactions American Institute of Electrical Engineers, Vol. 57 (1938), pp. 713-723.

We are still looking for some of the rest of these papers, so if you have electronic copies or can access them, get in touch with MYRIAD at [email protected] /* */ If you want to help MYRIAD, have access to mathematical material that should be available to all, or want to suggest what we should release, get in touch at [email protected] /* */, we are pretty friendly ppl. Greetz to quad, generic and chitsock who joined MYRIAD and who are helping us with downloading, preparing releases and with uploading. RIP to tpb tracker - thanks for the good times, looking forward to the next stage of torrent evolution. THANKS TO ALL THE SEEDERS!

i've removed that broken torrent file of yours

myriadw (2009-11-27)

thanks mate, i was interested to discover there are actually two 'R's in openbittorrent.com :)

Dogeron (2012-01-13)

Miracles do happen! I can not even begin to tell you how you have made my day in finding these. I took a chance and here they were. Pure gold. I will certainly be seeding to help the worthy cause...
