If you need background information about information theory you can explore my web site. You may find these two resources particularly useful:

Information Theory Primer, With an Appendix on Logarithms
A Glossary for Molecular Information Theory and the Delila System.
A good starting point would be the definition of a bit.

Demon-Haunted Brain (Michael Shermer, Scientific American, March 2003, page 47) gives an update on phenomena being neuronal events.
