Principles of Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A thorough exploration of the universal principles of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, this volume explains the applications of these essential rules to a multitude of situations arising in physics and engineering. It develops their use in a variety of circumstances--including those involving gases, crystals, and magnets--in order to illustrate general methods of analysis and to provide readers with all the necessary background to continue in greater depth with specific topics. Students can also supplement their understanding by working through numerous exercises. Mathematical physicists will find this text of particular value, as will engineers requiring a basic but comprehensive introduction. 1987 ed.
