“Summing Up: RecommendedUpper-division undergraduates.”  (Choice, 1 March 2014)

“The best choice is finally that the entropy is uncertainty commodified". The reviewer believes that the aim of the book is evident and it is worthwhile to make a detailed study of it from time to time.”  (Zentralblatt MATH, 1 October 2013)
