This book is the distilled essence of the author teaching
statistical mechanics to juniors, seniors and graduate students for
over 50 years in various course settings. It uses a unique approach
that leads naturally into the development of all possible
ensembles. Much of the later chapters on polymers has previously
been available only in the literature. Throughout the book, the
assumption is made that the reader is still relatively raw, and
mathematical detail is provided that other books leave to the
abilities of the reader. While this produces a plethora of
equations that mature scientists would regard as unnecessary, it is
intended to help those just coming into the field and who want to
get the idea without suffering hours of agony wondering, 'where did
that come from?'.
