Thermodynamics of Chaos and Order
Great on many new insights... but where's chaos?: Let me start out by saying that the previous reviewer was not refering to this book at all. If there's something this book does NOT cover is "quantum level events in liquid forms". It is true [... more]

Thermodynamics in Materials Science, Second Edition
Only textbook I've read completely twice: I used this textbook (taught by the author) as an undergraduate, and again as a clarifier in graduate school. Not only is Dr. DeHoff's book clear and logical, it dovetails nicely with the highly regarded, and [... more]

Modern Thermodynamics: From Heat Engines to Dissipative ...
This books certainly fills a void: Until now, books on non-equilibrium thermodynamics were quite advanced, courses on the subject were given separately from other thermodynamics courses, and thermodynamics in general was viewed as a collection of three - [... more]
