Exploring evolution across diverse scales, this work connects geology, biology, and social systems through the lens of thermodynamics and information theory. The author introduces the concept of "distinguishability" information, illustrating how this universal knowledge influences evolutionary processes. By examining the interplay between resource use and self-organization, the book challenges conventional views and offers a fresh perspective on the dynamics of evolution, making it essential for those interested in economics and related fields.
