Description

Explore the profound work of E. T. Jaynes in this volume from the Synthese Library. This collection focuses on a predictive, information theoretic approach to statistical mechanics. Through the first six chapters, the author demonstrates how basic probability distributions over microstates are obtained as distributions of maximum entropy. By utilizing distributions that are most non-committal regarding missing information while satisfying macroscopic constraints, this theory removes the need for additional assumptions of ergodicity or metric transitivity. The work proceeds through inference from macroscopic measurements and underlying dynamical assumptions, making it a significant text for those studying the philosophy of science and statistical physics.
