Paul Saint - Director -Document who devoted himself to the popularization of science, - met with thermodynamics when he mastered engineering. Thermodynamics studies the properties of energy and entropy, which explains the behavior of many physical systems, from cells of living organisms to a black hole in the heart of our galaxy. Nevertheless, thermodynamics, as a rule, remains in the shadow of other sections of physics. In an effort to correct this injustice, Sen tells the history of this science and introduces readers to the works of a whole row of brilliant engineers, physicists, biologists, cosmologists and mathematicians, from Sadi Carno to Lord Kelvin, James Joule, Albert Einstein, Emmy Schering and Stephen Hawking
