A Proposition to Theory of History and Social Evolution: Sociobiology Jul 22, 2009 The second edition of this book clarifies the differences between isolated and closed systems in the field of physics. However, such distiction has not been applied to social systems as far as I know. Therefore, the isolated and closed social systems remain equivalent systems as it was intended in the first edition.
Robert Kenoun
Interesting boundary conditions analysis; but some definitional issues. Aug 13, 2008 I ordered the book just a few minutes ago and quickly read the first six Amazon preview pages; a point to note, found thus far, is that, although the author seems to spend a good amount of time introducing thermodynamics and delineating "systems", "boundaries", and "relational bonds" (connections), he equates closed systems (open to energy flow) to isolated systems (closed to energy flow), which is incorrect from thermodynamic terminology perspective. This leads me to question the rest of the book?
