Beschreibung:
"This book provides a beautifully written, accessible yet very thorough introduction to thermodynamics, crafted and class-tested over many years of teaching. Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, the book provides clear descriptions of how to think about the mathematics and physics involved. The table of contents has been carefully developed in consultation with a large number of instructors teaching courses worldwide, to ensure its wide applicability to modules on thermodynamics. Modern applications of thermodyamics (in physics and related areas) are included throughout, something not offered to the same degree by existing texts in the field"
