Description
Book SynopsisA completely updated, expanded edition of a longstanding and influential text on chemical thermodynamics, this text presents the logical foundations and interrelationships of thermodynamics and its applications to practical problems. It is restricted to classical thermodynamics, thus maintaining a logical unity throughout the book.
Trade Review"[This] book is necessary to people working in various field chemistry, biology, geology and materials science." (
