Frank, List,
Just enough time for a quick note -- Michigan State v. UCONN at 2:00 --
but the best way of approaching Peirce's initial inquiries into the laws
of information is through his Harvard and Lowell lectures of 1865-1866
on the Logic of Science. I have been studying this for quite a while
and here are some links to my ongoing notes:
Peirce's Logic Of Information

Information = Comprehension × Extension

His most tantalizing late remarks occur in his work on Logical Graphs.
Back later ...
