The Entropy Effect

This book proposes conclusions and hypotheses derived from applying the concept of entropy to an analysis of physical and virtual systems. It is not a treatment of entropy as a thermodynamic measure, but rather a conceptual exploration of entropys role in systems. It presents a macroscopic level analysis of the effects of entropy in systems, and ties this analysis to discussions of energy, work, production, information, evolution, creation, society, health and the mind. It introduces the concept of Entropy Equilibrium as a way to quantify and define the exact nature of animate and inanimate objects. It introduces the concept of Virtual Entropy and its effect on physical systems. This book is intended to develop discussion and spur research into the concept of entropy as a way to better understand and relate with the physical world.
