Entropy - P. E. Francis A. Di Bella

Résumé :
Roberto is an international student from Italy studying for his engineering degree in Boston, MA. Since an early age he has learned to trust his inner voice and mind's eye as it excites Roberto's natural talents to ponder about new and intriguing facts about the complexity of the universe. In his first engineering thermodynamics class that inner voice raises the question of the efficient use of energy and asks where does the wasted energy or exergy go? This question leads Roberto and his study group friends to experiment with energy sources to answer this question. This exploratory journey leads Roberto and his friends to discover the fate of mankind but also how they can work to make their lives full and productive at least to delay the inevitable.
