Moving beyond studies of gay adult males and IV drug-users, this work paints a clear picture of the very real risk that exists for these less-studied, more general populations, so individuals may better personalize the risk and engage in more preventative measures.

Yet the foundations of this theory are surprisingly shaky. Its explanation for the ease of mixing milk with coffee is incomplete, and even implies that un-mixing them should be just as easy. In this book the authors develop a new conceptual foundation for statistical mechanics that addresses this difficulty. Explaining the notions of macrostates, probability, measurement, memory, and the arrow of time in statistical mechanics, they reach the startling conclusion that Maxwell's Demon, the famous perpetuum mobile, is consistent with the fundamental physical laws. Mathematical treatments are avoided where possible, and instead the authors use novel diagrams to illustrate the text. This is a fascinating book for graduate students and researchers interested in the foundations and philosophy of physics. 606 $aMaxwell's demon 606 $aSecond law of thermodynamics 606 $aStatistical thermodynamics 615 0$aMaxwell's demon. 615 0$aSecond law of thermodynamics. 615 0$aStatistical thermodynamics. 676 $a536/.71 700 $aHemmo$b Meir$01512408 702 $aShenker$b Orly 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779480403321 996 $aThe Road to Maxwell's demon$93746280 997 $aUNINA
