Although entropy is a standard notion in the curriculum of scientific and technical fields, there are still deep disagreements about its fundamental meaning. Several questions will be raised: | Although entropy is a standard notion in the curriculum of scientific and technical fields, there are still deep disagreements about its fundamental meaning.

Entropy has played a crucial role in the emergence of quantum physics, in relation to the problem of the application of statistical mechanics to black-body radiation, particularly the principle of equipartition of energy. In the resolution of this problem by Planck and Einstein entropy played a leading role. | Entropy has played a crucial role in the emergence of quantum physics, in relation to the problem of the application of statistical mechanics to black-body radiation, particularly the principle of equipartition of energy.
