Scientific paper

In statistical thermodynamics the 2nd law is properly spelled out in terms of
conditioned probabilities. As such it makes the statement, that `entropy
increases with time' without preferring a time direction. In this paper I try
to explain this statement--which is well known since the time of the
Ehrenfests--in some detail within a systematic Bayesian approach.
