The Road to Maxwell’s Demon
Cambridge University Press (2012)
Abstract
This book provides a conceptual foundation for statistical mechanics, which is - more generally - a conceptual framework for understanding natural kinds, which later became the conceptual framework for our reductive-physicalist view of the mind called Flat Physicalism.Author Profiles
