Description

Explore the evolving landscape of physics with this scholarly work from Springer. Part of the Fundamental Theories of Physics series (Volume 146), this book examines the shifting status of the second law of thermodynamics. Just as relativity and quantum mechanics redefined the twentieth century, new scrutiny over the last 20 years suggests a major scientific shift is underway. This text provides a detailed look at the theoretical and experimental challenges facing one of physics' most established principles. It is an essential resource for readers interested in how scientific thought undergoes radical upheaval and transformation through periods of intense scrutiny and discovery.
