This book is the first all-encompassing exploration of the role of demons inphilosophical and scientific thought experiments. Part III introduces Maxwell’s Demon, who - by contrast - experiences a world that is probabilistic and indeterministic. The book investigates what these Demons - and others - can and cannot tell us about our world.
