Special Issue: Entropies, Vol. 2, Iss. 2, 2024
Edited by Joel White and Gerald Moore
It is with great pleasure that Technophany: Journal of Philosophy and Technology announces the publication and completion of its special issue “Entropies,” Vol. 2, Iss. 2, 2024. Edited by Joel White and Gerald Moore, “Entropies” takes assembles a set of articles, discussions, and interview, all by a wide and prestigious collection of authors, which deals with the imperative of thinking through thermodynamic and information entropy. Given that our current era is marked by a perilous increase in “entropization,” the aim of this special issue has been to delimit entropy philosophically so as to offer the first steps toward a sober and theoretically informed account of this crucial concept.
