I did not enjoy this while trying to learn thermodynamics, but coming back to it a few years later I found it was an excellent exposition and clarified some things for me.

References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in English (16)The only text to cover both thermodynamic and statistical mechanics--allowing students to fully master thermodynamics at the macroscopic level. Presents essential ideas on critical phenomena developed over the last decade in simple, qualitative terms. This new edition maintains the simple structure of the first and puts new emphasis on pedagogical considerations. Thermostatistics is incorporated into the text without eclipsing macroscopic thermodynamics, and is integrated into the conceptual framework of physical theory. No library descriptions found. |
