Auteur: Grandy, Jr., Walter T. (Department of Physics, University of Wyoming)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
The book explicates the concept of entropy, particularly its governance of all of thermal physics, over a broad range of equilibrium and nonequilibrium phenomena. Historical development and modern research are presented in the context of entropy as a fundamental element of probability theory and its relation to the notion of information.
