Prigogine's Nobel Lecture establishes the thermodynamic basis for dissipative structures: open systems far from equilibrium can export entropy to surroundings and maintain ordered steady states. The entropy balance equation dS = d_e S + d_i S is derived.","claim_ids":["c1","c2","c3","c4","c5","c6"],"quality_score":0.95},{"id":"s2","type":"adjacent","url":"https://miscsubjects.com/a/schrodinger-1944","title":"Schrödinger 1944: What Is Life? — The Biological Prelude","quote":"It feeds on negative entropy.","summary":"Adjacent source.
