    Abstract
    Reviews the literature supporting the consensus of opinion that although many laws, theories, hypothesis and speculations about information have been proposed, adequate scientific and epistemic foundations for a general science of information have not yet appeared

    Abstract
    Records some thoughts towards achieving a closer union of information science with other sciences. Examines the idea of open systems and discusses the difference between the living organism and the nonliving open machine. Introduces the idea of alimentary and informational action, the former being concerned with growth and maintenance and the latter quick, self preservative action

    Abstract
    The first part of this examination begins with the prescientific are, ca. 3.400 BC. The 2nd from ca. 1.600 AD to the present, omits the explosion of quantity and variety of information, but follows the main thread, in the light of psychology and logic. The view, although much clearer, is still controversial. Strong relations tie the origins of science with those of information science. The role of the latter will probably be enhanced as future civilizations become more closely dependent on classification of ideas and on science and technology
