This second edition brings under one cover thirty-two reprints. Included are seminal works by James Clerk Maxwell and William Thomson; historical reviews by Martin Klein and Edward Daub; contributions by Leo Szilard and Leon Brillouin; linkages with the limits of computation by Rolf Landauer, Charles Bennett and Seth Lloyd; views of the demon using algorithmic information theory by Carleton Caves and Wojciech Zurek; examination of a quantum mechanical Maxwell's demon by Seth Lloyd. There are over 200 additions to the alphabetical and chronological bibliographies. A revised overview outlines the flurry of scholarly activity about Maxwell's demon since publication of the first edition.
