Entropy theory at aging systems : the universe.Entropy is a measure of order and disorder. If left alone, aging systems go spontaneously from a youthful, low entropy and order, to an old, high entropy and disorder. This book presents the commonality of entropy principles which govern the birth, maturation, and senescent history of aging humans, corporations, and the universe.EntropyNonequilibrium thermodynamicsEntropy.Nonequilibrium thermodynamics.536.73Hershey Daniel12851MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780724603321Entropy theory of aging systems3758127UNINA
