  • Four Laws That Drive the Universe

    A Very Short Introduction

    by Peter Atkins ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    The laws of thermodynamics drive everything that happens in the universe. From the sudden expansion of a cloud of gas to the cooling of hot metal, and from the unfurling of a leaf to the course of life itself - everything is directed and constrained by four simple laws. They establish fundamental concepts such as temperature and heat, and reveal the arrow of time and even the nature of energy ... Read more
