Jul 19, 2010 - Into the Cool: Energy Flow, Thermodynamics, and Life. As if life somehow violates thermodynamics when it is alive. To quote the authors' Gradients in Pressure, Temperature, or Chemical concentration naturally lead to Energy flow, say Schneider and Sagan, and these flows in Energy will in turn lead to the creation of complex systems.
