      I am going to talk about one of Maxwell's mischiefs.

      In the year 1857 Maxwell proposed an entity that violates the second law of thermodynamics. Ever since the entity is christened Maxwell's demon. In this talk I shall tell you of the origin of the second law of thermody-namics, various ways of stating it and what it implies. It is one law that has not yet been proved; nor is their any experiment in which it is violated.
      A consequence of the second law is that it is impossible to extract work from an isolated equilibrium system. Maxwell considered a box full of equi-librium gas with a partition in the middle. There is a hole in the partition guarded by a demon. The demon opens the door only when a fast moving molecule tries to go from right to left and a slow moving molecule from left to right. In this way it manages to create a temperature gradient. A Carnot's engine operating between hot left partition and cold right partition would extract work. The demon can thus defeat the second law.
      Ever since, Maxwell's demon has been haunting the physics community. Several attempts have been made to vanquish the demon. In fact at least on two occasions the demon was pronounced dead. But then the demon didn't die.
      In this talk I shall tell you of the story of the demon and its various disguises. In particular I shall tell you of some very recent developments that relate equilibrium free energies to non equilibrium work fluctuations
