Entropy, The Greatest Blunder Ever

In fact, Einstein, as Boltzmann did, tried to prove the Second Law from the dynamic laws of the particles constituted a thermodynamic system. To the best of my knowledge, no one has ever "overthrown" the Second Law since it was established by Clausius, Kelvin, Boltzmann and many others. In this chapter, we will start with three definitions of entropy and a few formulations of the Second Law. We will examine the framework of validity and the applications of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. It will be shown that both the concept of entropy and the Second Law were used in realms far beyond the framework of its applicability. In fact, the Second Law was not only applied in realms for which it could not be applied, but its very formulation has evolved into such monstrosity that is "allegedly" capable of driving and governing everything that happens in the Universe. It is this aspect of the Second Law which will be critically scrutinized in this chapter.
