Burbury's Last Case: The Mystery of the Entropic Arrow
| Abstract | Does not the theory of a general tendency of entropy to diminish [sic1] take too much for granted? To a certain extent it is supported by experimental evidence. We must accept such evidence as far as it goes and no further. We have no right to supplement it by a large draft of the scientific imagination. (Burbury 1904, 49) | |||||||||
