Feynman's Infinite Quantum Paths
There is a fundamental limit to the knowability of the universe. The Heisenberg uncertainty principle tells us that the more precisely we try to define one property, the less definable is its counterpart. Knowing a particle's location...

Reversing Entropy with Maxwell's Demon
The second law of thermodynamics - the law that entropy must, on average, increase - has been interpreted as the inevitability of the decay of structure. This is .... misleading. Structure can develop in one region even as the entropy of...
