a brief introduction. Fortunately there are two very well written introductory, non-mathematical books on entropy and statistical mechanics; one by Atkins [Atkins 1994] and the other by Ben-Naim [Ben-Naim 2007] to which the reader can go for more illumination. There is one key fact about entropy that

Booms and busts are endogenous. Free markets are not inherently stable. Again, as with the income and company models it noticeab

strongly defined constraints, the minimum entropy production approach has failed to find widespread application.) In chapter 9 of 'The Second Law', Atkins gives a brief but very well written review of dissipative structures, using as one example the creation of a simple fox-rabbit ecology and introduci

This suggests that, just as central banks are expected to control changes in the money supply caused by fractional reserve banking, it seems appro
