Opis

The book is reorganized into 3 sections. It adds a new chapter linking thermodynamic applications to the study of phase transformations and includes the role of work terms other than PV work along with attendant aspects of entropy, Maxwell equations, and role of such fields on phase diagrams. It features over 50 new chapter problems and figures.
