Abstract
Let U be an information source representing a systematic embedding environmental ‘program’ interacting with the process of cognitive gene expression, here defined as a complicated set of information sources having source joint uncertainty H(Z 1, …,Z n ) that guides the system into a particular equivalence class of desired developmental behaviors and trajectories. To model the effect of U on development one can, most simply, invoke results from network information theory, (Cover and Thomas, 1991, p. 388).
