A scientific allegory. Five essays on physics. The same questions running throughout: What do we leave out to make reality intelligible? Why do we keep forcing everything to make sense? And what remains when we face the void without looking away?
From an imagined city built on ideas from statistical physics to rigorous discussions of entropy, the arrow of time, collective behavior, emergence, quantum foundations, and the limits of explanation, The City of Equilibrium follows physics to the point where the equations end - and the harder questions begin.
