Evolved from McQuarrie and Simon's best-selling Physical Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, this text follows a similar path by first covering the principles of quantum mechanics before engaging those ideas in the subsequent development of thermodynamics. Although many of the chapters are similar to those in the physical chemistry text, new material has been added throughout along with three entirely new chapters.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"An extremely large number of worked examples and end-of-chapter problems supplement this excellent book." --Science & Technology
"The writing is exceptionally clear, and explanations are lucid and sound." --The Chemical Educator
"This book represents a sort of down-sized version of the Magnum Opus by the same authors: Physical Chemistry, A Molecular Approach. For those readers who are already familiar with this book and like it, I can say that: this one gives you basically the same goodies but in a more digestible form...McQuarrie is emerging as one of the the best writers on undergrad thermodynamics and statistical mechanics around..." --Journal of Statistical Physics
