Dear Jerry,
Part Three - Theory of Value: Energy and Information of "Value and
Valuations" contains chapters 18-26 (pp. 453-645). The first chapter is 18.
The principles of thermodynamics and is divided into 18.2 The theorems of
Carnot and Clausius; 18.5 Calculation of entropy production: the
Gouy-Stodola theorem; 18.7 Energy and exergy efficiency, etc. I think I was
the first or among the first to include the determination of energy or
exergy for each unit of good or service produced in the economic-entropic
balance sheet of each company. So I necessarily had to include the logic of
mathematics or the mathematics of logic in my ecological economics or
economic ecology. Greetings.
Francesco
Caro Jerry,
la Parte Terza- Teoria del valore: energia e informazione di "Valore e
valutazioni" contiene i capitoli 18-26 (pp. 453-645).
Il primo capitolo è 18. I principi della termodinamica e si articola in
18.2 I teoremi di Carnot e di Clausius; 18.5 Calcolo della
produzione di entropia: il teorema di Gouy-Stodola; 18.7 Efficienza
energetica ed exergetica, etc. Credo di essere stato il
primo o tra i primi a inserire nel bilancio economico-entropico di ogni
impresa la determinazione  dell'energia o dell'exergia
per ogni unità di bene o servizio prodotto. Quindi ho dovuto
necessariamente inserire nella mia economia ecologica o ecologia
economica, la logica della matematica o la matematica della logica.
Saluti.
Francesco
