To anyone curious about the intimated interplay of entropy and life, I want to highly recommend the book:

The Romance of Reality: How the Universe Organizes Itself to Create Life, Consciousness, and Cosmic Complexity by Bobby Azarian

> When you empty a bathtub, why does a swirl form? → Because it is the most efficient way to increase entropy.

> The author argues in that life is very likely because it is the most efficient way to increase entropy in the universe.

I fear my words don't do the book justice, I found it very long, but just as illuminating, highly recommended.
