Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Bantam edition / October 1981. Bright, clean & tight paperback, unread, in Very Good condition. "Entropy is the supreme law of nature and governs everything we do. ENTROPY tells us why our existing world view is crumbling and what will replace it." [] "A well-written, logical assault on the conventional view that, given time and knowledge, everything will work out. As we re-industrialize the U.S. to meet new energy realities, our policy should determine which industries are inevitably running down and which can grow. An understanding of entropy could help in that identification and this book can help provide that understanding."--Business Week. "A comprehensive world view, timely, thought-provoking and surprisingly engaging. It is an appropriate successor to Silent Spring, The Limits to Growth, and Small Is Beautiful."--Minneapolis Tribune. Pristine paperback w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine, quite presentable. Seller Inventory # RUB1784
