Farewell to Entropy, A: Statistical Thermodynamics Based on Information
ISBN: 9789812707079 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ben-Naim (mathematics, The Hebrew U., Israel) goes one step beyond common interpretations of the principle of maximum entropy, replacing it with what he feels is the more suitable concept of information, or better yet, missing information (MI). He explains his rationale as he describes the history of studies of temperature and entropy and the association of entropy with disorder and MI. He describes the basic elements of probability theory, including the axiomatic approach and the relative frequency definition, then defines and explains elements of information theory, including MI and the...

Entropy: The Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing But the Truth
ISBN: 9789813147676 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book discusses the proper definitions of entropy, the valid interpretation of entropy and some useful applications of the concept of entropy. Unlike many books which apply the concept of entropy to systems for which it is not even defined (such as living systems, black holes and the entire universe), these applications will help the reader to understand the meaning of entropy. It also emphasizes the limitations of the applicability of the concept of entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics. As with the previous books by the author, this book aims at a clear and mystery-free...

Water and Aqueous Solutions: Introduction to a Molecular Theory
ISBN: 9781461587040 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 474 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The molecular theory of water and aqueous solutions has only recently emerged as a new entity of research, although its roots may be found in age-old works. The purpose of this book is to present the molecular theory of aqueous fluids based on the framework of the general theory of liquids. The style of the book is introductory in character, but the reader is presumed to be familiar with the basic properties of water for instance, the topics reviewed by Eisenberg and Kauzmann (1969)] and the elements of classical thermodynamics and statistical mechanics e.g., Denbigh (1966), Hill (1960)]...

Information Theory and Selected Applications
ISBN: 9783031212758 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book focuses on analysing the applications of the Shannon Measure of Information (SMI). The book introduces the concept of frustration and discusses the question of the quantification of this concept within information theory (IT), while it also focuses on the interpretation of the entropy of systems of interacting particles in terms of the SMI and of mutual information. The author examines the question of the possibility of measuring the extent of frustration using mutual information and discusses some classical examples of processes of mixing and assimilation for which the entropy...

Entropy Demystified: The Second Law Reduced to Plain Common Sense
ISBN: 9789812700551 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this unique book, Arieh Ben-Naim invites the reader to experience the joy of appreciating something which has eluded understanding for many years - entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The book has a two-pronged message: first, that the Second Law is not "infinitely incomprehensible" as commonly stated in textbooks of thermodynamics but can, in fact, be comprehended through sheer common sense; and second, that entropy is not a mysterious quantity that has "resisted understanding" but a simple, familiar and easily comprehensible concept. Written in an accessible style, the book...

Information, Entropy, Life and the Universe: What We Know and What We Do Not Know
ISBN: 9789814651677 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The aim of this book is to explain in simple language what we know and what we do not know about information and entropy - two of the most frequently discussed topics in recent literature - and whether they are relevant to life and the entire universe. Entropy is commonly interpreted as a measure of disorder. This interpretation has caused a great amount of "disorder" in the literature. One of the aims of this book is to put some "order" in this "disorder". The book explains with minimum amount of mathematics what information theory is and how it is related to thermodynamic entropy. Then it...

The Protein Folding Problem and Its Solutions
ISBN: 9789814436366 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book presents a new approach to the Protein Folding Problem. It starts with a clear description of what the protein folding problem involves. Then, it suggests non-conventional answers to some of the questions posed. In particular, it emphasizes the importance of hydrophilic interactions and hydrophilic forces, rather than the hydrophobic effects, for the stability of the native structure of proteins, as well for the speed of the folding process.

Molecular Theory of Water and Aqueous Solutions - Part II: The Role of Water in Protein Folding, Self-Assembly and Molecular Recognition
ISBN: 9789814350549 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book starts out by presenting the evidence for the importance of hydrophilic interactions in biochemical processes and then goes on to describe the applications of the hydrophilic interactions in these processes, specifically protein folding, protein association, self assembly and molecular recognition. In this volume it is shown that the new paradigm, based on the hydrophilic effect, brings us as close as one can hope to the solutions of the protein folding problem, as well as the problem of self assembly and molecular recognition. In addition, the new paradigm also provides an...
