Descripción provista por la editorial :

Ever since it was first formulated a century and a half ago, the Second Law of thermodynamics (or law of entropy increase) has had an air of mystery about it. Why is it true? Is it even always true? In this book, Stephen Wolfram builds on recent breakthroughs in the foundations of physics to finally provide a resolution to the mystery of the Second Law, elegantly showing how it emerges as a general feature of processes that can be described computationally as well as their interplay with our computational characteristics as observers. For Wolfram, the effort to understand the Second Law has been a 50-year quest, beginning when he was 12 years old. In the book, Wolfram tells the story of this quest as well as traces the whole remarkable history of the Second Law. Written with great clarity and richly illustrated with both striking modern diagrams and extensive historical material, this book will be of interest to anyone who wants to understand the foundations and origins of one of the most important and widely applied principles of modern science.Contents:PrefaceComputational Foundations for the Second Law of ThermodynamicsThe Mystery of the Second Law - The Core Phenomenon of the Second Law - The Road from Ordinary Thermodynamics - Reversibility, Irreversibility and Equilibrium - Ergodicity and Global Behavior - How Random Does It Get? - The Concept of Entropy - Why the Second Law Works - Textbook Thermodynamics - Towards a Formal Proof of the Second Law - Maxwells Demon and the Character of Observers - The Heat Death of the Universe - Traces of Initial Conditions - When the Second Law Works, and When It Doesnt - The Second Law and Order in the Universe - Class 4 and the Mechanoidal Phase - The Mechanoidal Phase and Bulk Molecular Biology - The Thermodynamics of Spacetime - Quantum Mechanics - The Future of the Second Law - Thanks & NotesA 50-Year Quest: My Personal Journey with the Second Law of ThermodynamicsWhen I Was 12 Years Old... - Becoming a Physicist - Statistical Mechanics and Simple Programs - Computational Irreducibility and Rule 30 - Where Does Randomness Come From? - Hydrodynamics, and a Turbulent Tale - Getting to the Continuum - The Second Law in A New Kind of Science - The Physics Project-and the Second Law Again - Discovering Class 4 - The End of a 50-Year Journey - Appendix: The Backstory of the Book Cover That Started It All - Notes & ThanksHow Did We Get Here?
