Description This account of thermodynamics and statistical
mechanics is based on entropy and its maximization. Building from
first principles, it gives a transparent explanation of the
physical behaviour of equilibrium thermodynamic systems, and it
presents a comprehensive, self-contained account of the modern
mathematical and computational techniques of statistical mechanics.
Importance of Topic This field of study is of vital importance to
researchers, lecturers and students alike. Why This Title Dr Attard
is a well-known researcher in statistical mechanics who has made
significant contributions to this field. His book offers a fresh
perspective on the foundations of statistical thermodynamics. It
includes a number of new results and novel derivations, and
provides an intriguing alternative to existing monographs.
Especially of note are the simple graphs and figures that
illustrate the text throughout and the logical organization of the
material. Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics will be an
invaluable and comprehensive reference manual for research
scientists. This text can be used as a complement to existing texts
and for supplementary reading.
