AUTHOR
SUMMARY
The principal message of this book is that thermodynamics and statistical mechanics will benefit from replacing the unfortunate, misleading and mysterious term "entropy" with a more familiar, meaningful and appropriate term such as information, missing information or uncertainty. This replacement would facilitate the interpretation of the "driving force" of many processes in term of informational changes and dispel the mystery that has always enshrouded entropy.Ben-Naim, Arieh is the author of 'Statistical Thermodynamics Based on Information ', published 2007 under ISBN 9789812707079 and ISBN 9812707077.
