Read chapter twenty, “The Anatomy of Cryptology.”  This is perhaps one of the single most important chapters in the book.  I have highlighted almost every page fully, but will still attempt to give you direction.  Pay very close attention from page 744 to the end of the chapter.  For discussion you should read the steps for determining the entropy of a language on page 760.  You can also find this C.E. Shannon paper here.  Takes about 1.25 hours to read.
