This second edition extends and improves on the first, already an acclaimed and original treatment of statistical concepts insofar as they impact theoretical physics and form the basis of modern thermodynamics. This book illustrates through myriad examples the principles and logic used in extending the simple laws of idealized Newtonian physics and quantum physics into the real world of noise and thermal fluctuations.In response to the many helpful comments by users of the first edition, important features have been added in this second, new and revised edition. These additions allow a more coherent picture of thermal physics to emerge. Benefiting from the expertise of the new co-author, the present edition includes a detailed exposition - occupying two separate chapters - of the renormalization group and Monte-Carlo numerical techniques, and of their applications to the study of phase transitions. Additional figures have been included throughout, as have new problems. A new Appendix presents fully worked-out solutions to representative problems; these illustrate various methodologies that are peculiar to physics at finite temperatures, that is, to statistical physics.This new edition incorporates important aspects of many-body theory and of phase transitions. It should better serve the contemporary student, while offering to the instructor a wider selection of topics from which to craft lectures on topics ranging from thermodynamics and random matrices to thermodynamic Green functions and critical exponents, from the propagation of sound in solids and fluids to the nature of quasiparticles in quantum liquids and in transfer matrices.

Praise The Lord Volume 1 is dedicated to Paul Crouch (1934-2013). Paul Crouch along with his wife and partner Jane are the Christian visionaries who were chosen by the Almighty to create the Trinity Broadcast Network (TBN). I did not know Paul Crouch personally, but his love for the Lord and the Word radiated through the television screen as he PRAISED THE LORD. Paul Crouch was a dedicated servant of the Lord always trying to be obedient to the Almighty's voice; always trying to follow the Lord's lead.; in doing so, the TBN was birth and progressed to a tool whereby millions of people became followers of Christ; whereby millions around the world could hear the Gospel. Paul Crouch ran the course that was designed for him; and he ran it well. Now, he can rest in peace in the presence of the Lord. I believe that the Lord welcomed Paul with open arms, with a smile, and with the words that every Christian hope to hear: WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT. LARGE PRINT

PRAISE THE LORD: FOR IT IS GOOD TO SING PRAISES UNTO OUR GOD; FOR IT IS PLEASANT; AND PRAISE IS BEAUTIFUL. PSALM 147: 1 My Daily Hymns and Puzzles is dedicated to gospel writers, musicians, and singers; for thousands of years their hymns, songs, and music has indeed enriched the lives of those who love God. Many people have found salvation through the joyous words and sounds of praise, honor, and glory to the Lord. One of my friends, who has gone to be with the Lord, had Alzheimer's Disease. Before she expired, she could not remember any of her family; she had forgotten how to function; and she could no longer have a rational conversation; yet, she remembered and could sing Amazing Grace, I'll Fly Away, and many other hymns and songs. It was an amazing blessing to hear her singing and praising the Lord; yet she could not even remember her own name. Therefore, My Daily Hymns and Puzzles honors Christian writer's, musicians, and singers for their contributions to the Kingdom, and to Christianity. LARGE PRINT

Revelation: Things to Come is dedicated to Christian Businesses; those businesses that stand-up for Christian principles regardless to the increasingly defiance of the rights of Christians by legislators and policymakers in this great United States. It appears that every day Christian's rights are being violated, dishonored, and forbidden in this land of freedom. It appears that every religion in this land of freedom has freedom except for the Christians. God forbid Therefore, I applaud and pray for all Christian businesses that continue to fight for the right to be companies based on Christian values and principles.

The original Scriptures That We Love; Volumes 1 & 2 were my first search and find puzzle books. Although they were enjoyable entertainment, I found that revisions in both volumes were needed. Hence, I decided to combine the volume; while also making the puzzles smaller and easier. Additionally, I decided to change the size of the volume and to redo the cover. I hope that you enjoy the new and improved version of Scriptures That We Love: Volumes 1 & 2 Revised. I would like to continue to make improvements on all Scriptures That We Love products. Your feedback is encouraged and appreciated. Thank You. The King James Study Bible (KJSB; 1988) was used make the revisions to this search and find puzzle book.

Scriptures That We Love for Kids is dedicated to my sweetie and granddaughter, Stori Enyce Fields. She began search and find puzzles in Kindergarten; she asked me three years ago to create a search and find puzzle for her. 2nd Edition Stori is seven years old. She likes Bible stories, and enjoys search and finds puzzles and activities; so, I combined her likes in creating Scriptures That We Love for Kids. I have found search and find puzzles to be a fun method in learning and studying the Bible. I can affirm that Scriptures That We Love puzzles are enjoyed by people of all ages.

Praise The Lord Volume 2 is dedicated to the renowned Nelson Mandela (R.I.P. 1918-2013). Nelson Mandela envisioned freedom and peace for South Africa and for the entire world. Nelson Mandela indeed ran the course that was designed for him; and he ran it well. Now, he can rest in peace in the presence of the Lord. I believe that the Lord welcomed Mandela l with open arms, with a smile, and with the words that every Christian hopes to hear: WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT. LARGE PRINT

AND THERE ARE ALSO MANY OTHER THINGS WHICH JESUS DID, THE WHICH, IF THEY SHOULD BE WRITTEN ONE BY ONE, I SUPPOSE THAT EVEN THE WORLD ITSELF COULD NOT CONTAIN THE BOOKS THAT SHOULD BE WRITTEN. AMEN. JOHN 21: 25 (KJSB, 1988). LARGE PRINT

The idea for this search and find puzzle is to allow one to ponder on their beliefs regarding the second coming. Most Christians believe that the Rapture is before, during, or after the Great Tribulation; it is most important that we are ready when ever our Lord returns. Our beliefs on the matter should in no way cause us to argue or to fight each other. I'm quite certain that our Lord would not want us to quarrel on this matter. As you work this search and find, ponder and search the scriptures, ask the Lord for understanding; and by all means, be watchful for our Lord's return for His return is nearer than when we first believed. Amen and so be it.
