Essentials of Modern Thermodynamics - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This small book covers the essential elements of modern thermodynamics. While classical thermodynamics focuses on systems at equilibrium, modern thermodynamics emphasizes irreversible processes in systems out of equilibrium. You could say it puts the dynamics back into thermodynamics.

P.W. Bridgman wrote, "There can be no doubt, I think, that the average physicist is made a little uncomfortable by thermodynamics." This book is not designed as a course textbook but it should help you understand thermodynamics, in or out of school.
