From this it follows immediately that the second law of thermodynamics does not, as is sometimes claimed, say that entropy increases monThis content downloaded from 131.211.208.19 on Wed, 07 Dec 2016 09:35:42 UTC turn to a discussion of the well-known procedure of deriving equilibrium thermodynamics from statistical mechanics; this will, as noted Second, thermodynamic quantities are either identified with ensemble averages of phase functions (for instance energy and pressure), or with	./cache/work_vxfm4mkqrnbdhlsdiwqicszrma.pdf	./txt/work_vxfm4mkqrnbdhlsdiwqicszrma.txt
