Presenting classical thermodynamics as a concise and discrete
whole, "Mere Thermodynamics" is a perfect tool for teaching a
notoriously difficult subject.
Accomplished teacher Don S. Lemons introduces the physical
theory's concepts and methods and uses them to solve problems from
a broad range of physics. He illustrates, at a gentle pace, not
only the fundamentals of the subject but also advanced topics such
as the relationship between the second law of thermodynamics and
entropy. He highlights the intellectual structure and history of
the discipline and explores the logical consequences of each of the
famous three laws. Lemons explains and develops the first two laws
and their corollaries, the methods and applications of
thermodynamics, and the third law, as well as non-fluid variables,
equilibrium and stability, and two-phase systems.
The book features end-of-chapter practice problems, an appendix
of worked problems, a glossary of terms, and an annotated
bibliography.
