Thermodynamics Step-by-Step

Most thermodynamics textbooks are lacking in the more detailed chemical thermodynamics that are important to engineering and applied sciences and often include too much material, emphasizing breadth rather than depth. A better approach is to emphasize a solid grounding in the basics, as this book does. The key to this approach--which makes it different from every other textbook--is to present detailed development of the equations in a manner that an undergraduate student is able to follow. The text includes a large number of completely worked example problems to show the students how to use the theoretical principles and equations developed.
