Editorial Review Product Description This book at the intersection of natural sciences, economics, and water engineering aims to reduce the gaps between economic theory, natural sciences, and engineering practice. Based on an extended thermodynamic approach, the authors explain which economic assumptions are acceptable for constructing a dynamic model that is consistent with the natural sciences. In particular, the special role of water in the production and reproduction activities will be considered as an integral component. Water is generated in a separate water treatment process and is used to transport the unavoidable by-products of production and reproduction activities to a wastewater sector. In this respect, not only environmental protection aspects, but also the interrelation between the water requirements and the use of non-renewable resources for producing desired consumption goods will be highlighted. |

Editorial Review Product Description The main body of the book is structured in Socratic style, involving a lively discussion between Mack Reale, "a protagonist of the macroscopic view," and Mike Statwiz, "a protagonist of the statistical view." The discussion is moderated by Bea A. Wiseladi. After these three fictional characters resolve many of the complexities of thermodynamics, Prof. Kline takes the podium and presents a detailed summary of the state of the art of thermodynamics. The book contains several important new results that many experts and students of thermodynamics will find useful: 1. an improved definition of irreversibility, (most current texts do not define it.); 2. recognition that adequate understanding of irreversibility must include consideration of both the microscopic (statistical) and the macroscopic (continuum) views of energy and matter; 3. information is not and cannot be made equal to entropy; why we will not observe a Maxwell demon or other types of "molecular demons;" 4. why entropy increases. The book concludes with a tour through six types of statements of the 2nd Law in order to provide the many views that are used and that are necessary to a full view of the implications of the 2nd Law. |

Editorial Review Product Description Students, academics and researchers will find this book an invaluable contribution to the understanding of thermodynamics. In this new treatment of the subject, the authors focus on the principles of thermodynamic variables and the practical simulation of thermodynamic systems, and endeavor to show how simple thermodynamics really is. It offers a unique view of modern complex systems engineering and its ramifications. |
