Entropy and the Time Evolution of Macroscopic Systems - International Series of Monographs on Physics
Grandy, Jr., Walter T. (Department of Physics, University of Wyoming)
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.
