    Transformation of ideas from one discipline to another, especially transformation of ideas from philosophy to science and from science to generalized world view.

  • T3 415A: Entropy and Human Activity

    4.00 Credits
    Ohio University-Main Campus

    Examines the application of the concept of entropy to human society as a whole, through the critical reading and discussion of works by Jeremy Rifkin and Bernard Cohen. Energy is conserved, but most physical processes involve transformations of available energy into forms less readily available. Rifkin claims that civilized humanity should reorder its priorities to minimize increases of entropy, which characterize such transformations. Several topics in the physical sciences are presented in some detail to provide adequate technical background to evaluate Rifkin’s theses.
