Farewell To Entropy, A: Statistical Thermodynamics Based On Information
Ben-naim, Arieh (The Hebrew Univ Of Jerusalem, Israel)
Advocates replacing "entropy" by "information," a term that has become widely used in many branches of science. This book takes a fresh approach to thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. It uses information as a tool for predicting distributions and as the fundamental cornerstone concept of thermodynamics.
