  Thermodynamic entropy is not an entirely satisfactory measure of information
of a quantum state. This entropy for an unknown pure state is zero, although
repeated measurements on copies of such a pure state do communicate
information. In view of this, we propose a new measure for the informational
entropy of a quantum state that includes information in the pure states and the
thermodynamic entropy. The origin of information is explained in terms of an
interplay between unitary and non-unitary evolution. Such complementarity is
also at the basis of the so-called interaction-free measurement.
