The conversion of the recent resource-wasting world economy to a sustainable economic system protecting global resources and habitats is crucial for the further development of humankind. This book introduces the physical basics and the importance of entropy for living beings, machines, computers, industrial facilities, ecological systems, and the earth as a whole. Readers of this book are encouraged to see the universal applicability of the entropy concept and the urgent need to estimate the fundamental importance of entropy for natural and technical processes.

Produktbeschreibung
The conversion of the recent resource-wasting world economy to a sustainable economic system protecting global resources and habitats is crucial for the further development of humankind. This book introduces the physical basics and the importance of entropy for living beings, machines, computers, industrial facilities, ecological systems, and the earth as a whole. Readers of this book are encouraged to see the universal applicability of the entropy concept and the urgent need to estimate the fundamental importance of entropy for natural and technical processes. The key role of these processes has to be understood and recognized in order to coming to an intelligent adaptation on the arrow of time, which allows the conversion of all non-sustainable production processes into a global sustainable economy in a dynamical world.
Autorenporträt
Michael Köhler studied chemistry in Halle an der Saale and Jena, Germany, where he also habilitated in general and physical chemistry in 1992. Between 1991 and 2001, he was head of the Department of Microfabrication and Biotechnical Microsystems at the Institute of Physical High Technologies in Jena. During this time, Prof. Köhler also taught at the Universities of Wuppertal and Jena, and his research was focused on the development of chip devices and microfluidic systems for chemical and biomolecular applications. The research projects of his group include applications of microfluidics and microreactors for the synthesis of nanoparticles and for miniaturized cultivation and screenings of microorganisms. Prof. Köhler has edited books on microlithography, microsystem technology, microfluidics, miniaturized sensors, and nanotechnology.
