new book on Information Geometry

[Shun-ichi Amari]

Dear Connectionists

    It is my pleasure to announce the publication of
a book on Information Geometry.  I have been
often asked if there is a good book on information
geometry to know its general perspectives. Here it is.

    S.Amari and H.Nagaoka, Methods of Information Geometry,
      AMS Translations of Mathematical Monographs, vol 191
      (translated by Daishi Harada)
      American Mathematical Society (AMS) and Oxford University Press,
      206 + x pages, 2000.   (See http://www.ams.org/)
