Chemical Thermodynamics: Principles and Applications presents a
thorough development of the principles of thermodynamics--an
old
science to which the authors include the most modern applications,
along with those of importance in developing the science and those
of
historical interest. The text is written in an informal but
rigorous style, including ancedotes about some of the great
thermodynamicists (with some of whom the authors have had a
personal relationship), and focuses on "real" systems in the
discussion and figures, in contrast to the generic examples that
are often used in other textbooks.
The book provides a basic review of thermodynamic principles,
equations, and applications of broad interest. It covers the
development of thermodynamics as one of the pre-eminent examples of
an exact science. A discussion of the standard state that
emphasizes its significance and usefulness is also included, as
well as a more rigorous and indepth treatment of thermodynamics and
discussions of a wider variety of applications than are found in
more broadly based physical chemistry undergraduate textbooks.
Combined with its companion book, Chemical Thermodynamics: Advanced
Applications, the practicing scientist will have a complete
reference set detailing chemical thermodynamics.
