  • Solvent-Induced Interactions and Forces in Protein Folding
    Arieh Ben-Naim
    This monograph presents the molecular theory and necessary tools for the study of solvent-induced interactions and forces. After introducing the reader to the basic definitions of solvent-induced interactions, the author provides a brief analysis of the statistical thermodynamics. The book thoroughly overviews the connection of those interactions with thermodynamics and consequ...

  • Information Theory and Selected Applications
    Arieh Ben-Naim
    This book focuses on analysing the applications of the Shannon Measure of Information (SMI). The book introduces the concept of frustration and discusses the question of the quantification of this concept within information theory (IT), while it also focuses on the interpretation of the entropy of systems of interacting particles in terms of the SMI and of mutual information. T...

  • INFORMATION THEORY (P1)
    ARIEH BEN-NAIM / BEN-NAIM ARIEH
    This book is about the definition of the Shannon measure of Information, and some derived quantities such as conditional information and mutual information. Unlike many books, which refer to the Shannon's Measure of information (SMI) as "Entropy," this book makes a clear distinction between the SMI and Entropy.In the last chapter, Entropy is derived as a special case of SMI...

  • ENTROPY
    ARIEH BEN-NAIM / BEN-NAIM ARIEH
    This book discusses the proper definitions of entropy, the valid interpretation of entropy and some useful applications of the concept of entropy. Unlike many books which apply the concept of entropy to systems for which it is not even defined (such as living systems, black holes and the entire universe), these applications will help the reader to understand the meaning of entr...

  • The Briefest History of Time
    Arieh Ben-Naim
     The aim of this book is to explain in simple language what we know about time and about the history of time. It is shown that the briefest (as well as the lengthiest) history of time can be described in one or two pages.The second purpose of the book is to show that neither entropy, nor the Second Law of Thermodynamics has anything to do with time. The third purpose is to educ...

  • MYTHS AND VERITIES IN PROTEIN FOLDING THEORIES
    ARIEH BEN-NAIM / BEN-NAIM ARIEH
     This book tells the story of a whole field of research which went disastrously wrong in many different directions when the wrong tools were used and the wrong targets aimed at, to solve a problem.It all started from the misinterpretation of Schellman's experiments which were carried out in the mid-1950s, and which were later encapsulated by the so-called "Hydrogen-bond inv...

  • INFORMATION, ENTROPY, LIFE AND THE UNIVERSE
    ARIEH BEN-NAIM / BEN-NAIM ARIEH
    The aim of this book is to explain in simple language what we know and what we do not know about information and entropy — two of the most frequently discussed topics in recent literature — and whether they are relevant to life and the entire universe.Entropy is commonly interpreted as a measure of disorder. This interpretation has caused a great amount of "disorder" in the lit...

  • Solvation Thermodynamics
    Arieh Y. Ben-Naim
    This book deals with a subject that has been studied since the beginning of physical chemistry. Despite the thousands of articles and scores of books devoted to solvation thermodynamics, I feel that some fundamen­ tal and well-established concepts underlying the traditional approach to this subject are not satisfactory and need revision. The main reas...

  • Hydrophobic Interactions
    Arieh Y. Ben-Naim
    My personal involvement with the problem of hydrophobic interactions (HI) began about ten years ago. At that time I was asked to write a review article on the properties of aqueous solutions of nonpolar solutes. While surveying the literature on this subject I found numerous discussions of the concept of HI. My interest in these interactions increased...

    This book evolved from a graduate course on applications of statistical thermody­ namics to biochemical systems. Most of the published papers and books on this subject used in the course were written by experimentalists who adopted the phenomenological approach to describe and interpret their results. Two outstanding papers that impressed me deeply we...
