Yuxi on the Wired - Classical Thermodynamics and Economics
How to think like a classical thermodynamic-economist, delivered with many illustrations and some sci-fi metaphors. Particular emphasis on what traditional pedagogy gets wrong. Prerequisites: multivariate calculus and mathematical maturity.
Classical Thermodynamics and Economics – Yuxi on the Wired Introduction It is to the economist, the statistician, the philosopher, and to the general reader that I commend the analysis contained herein… mathematics as applied to classical thermodynamics is beautiful: if you can’t see that, you were born color-blind and are to be pitied. Paul Samuelson , forewords to ( Bickler and Samuelson 1974 ) What this essay contains Unlike my Analytical Mechanics essay , this essay does not cover much of the width covered in a university course on classical thermodynamics or neoclassical economics.
