Thermodynamics: A Historical and Theoretical Foundation provides a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of thermodynamics from its historical and theoretical foundations.
The book begins with an introduction to the history of thermodynamics, from its early roots in the work of Sadi Carnot and Rudolf Clausius to its modern development as a branch of statistical mechanics.
The book then goes on to develop the theoretical foundations of thermodynamics, including the laws of thermodynamics, the concept of entropy, and the thermodynamic potentials.
The book also includes a number of applications of thermodynamics, such as the study of phase transitions, chemical reactions, and biological systems.
Thermodynamics: A Historical and Theoretical Foundation is an essential resource for anyone who wants to understand the foundations of thermodynamics and its applications in a variety of fields.
