Critics Review

Bill and Carol Hoover have teamed up to produce this greatly expanded new edition of Bill’s earlier book grappling with one of the oldest problems in physics - reconciling the irreversibility of thermodynamics with the reversibility of Newtonian mechanics. – Julien Clinton Sprott “Emeritus Professor of Physics, University of Wisconsin - Madison, Author of Chaos and Time-Series Analysis and Elegant Chaos”The second edition with over 100 pages of new material, gives an up-to-date and distinctive treatment of physical issues, emphasizing the need for a holistic view incorporating theory, simulation and experiment.
