I was hoping this would be led by Thomas Cover. I took his class back in Stanford many years ago, and found it to be one of the most enlightening. He wrote the classic text on information theory -- a very well written textbook that actually keeps you interested: http://www.amazon.com/Elements-Information-Theory-Thomas-Cover/dp/0471062596 http://www.amazon.com/Elements-Information-Theory-Thomas-Cov...

Tsachy's an excellent researcher and an excellent teacher. A long time ago in a universe far away, we used to sit together taking classes (perhaps even Information Theory was one of them - I don't really remember) I haven't seen him teach in 13 or 14 years now, but I'm sure he only got better at it, and highly recommend taking this course if you are interested in Information Theory. (come back and downvote me in 4 months if you disagree)
