Entropy Is The Price Of Structure.

The More We Know About Our Universe, The More Difficult It Becomes To Believe In Determinism.

(1) Irreversible Processes Are As Real As Reversible Ones. (2) Irreversible Processes Play A Fundamental Constructive Role In The Physical World. (3) Irreversibility Is Deeply Rooted In Dynamics.

In Far From Equilibrium Conditions, The Concept Of Probability That Underlies Boltzmann's Order Principle Is No Longer Valid If The Structures We Observe Do Not Correspond To A Maximum Of Complexions

The Real Is Only One Realization Of The Possible.

Now We See Evolutionary Trends In A Variety Of Areas Ranging From Atomic And Molecular Physics Through Fluid Mechanics, Chemistry And Biology To Large Scale Systems Of Relevance In Environmental And Economic Sciences
