The World Is Richer Than

The Irreversibility Of Time Is The Mechanism That Brings Order Out Of Chaos.

It Is A Remarkable Fact That The Second Law Of Thermodynamics Has Played In The History Of Science A Fundamental Role Far Beyond Its Original Scope. Suffice It To Mention Boltzmann's Work On Kinetic Theory, Planck's Discovery Of Quantum Theory Or Einstein's Theory Of Spontaneous Emission, Which Were All Based On The Second Law Of Thermodynamics.

Entropy Is The Price Of Structure.

The Statistical Probability That Organic Structures And The Most Precisely Harmonized Reactions That Typify Living Organisms Would Be Generated By Accident, Is Zero.

(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.
