From the reviews:
MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
"This book nicely complements the existing literature on information and coding theory by concentrating on arbitrary nonstationary and/or nonergodic sources and channels with arbitrarily large alphabets. Even with such generality the authors have managed to successfully reach a highly unconventional but very fertile exposition rendering new insights into many problems."
"This book proposes a generalization of information theory in the sense of Shannon to a situation with sources and channels being possibly nonstationary and/or nonergodic. … This book presents useful and important concepts in information theory arising from original ideas of the author … ." (A. Akutowicz, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1010, 2003)
