Description - Thermodynamics by Gilbert Lewis

"The book will undoubtedly resume its place as a constant guide and reference for chemists using thermodynamics in their research, and as a textbook and reference for classes in the application of thermodynamics to chemistry." - The Journal of Chemical Education Since its first publication in 1923, this volume has been considered one of the great books in the literature of chemistry. In the early 60s, two well-known chemists revised and updated it, adding substantial material on solution thermodynamics, results in statistical mechanics, surfaces, gravitational and electromagnetic fields, and other areas. The republication of this foundational work will be welcomed by teachers in the field. AUTHORS: Gilbert Newton Lewis (1875–1946) was Dean of the College of Chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley. Merle Randall (1888–1950) was a colleague of Gilbert Newton Lewis on the faculty of the University of California, Berkeley. Kenneth S. Pitzer (1914–97) was a Professor and Dean of the College of Chemistry at Berkeley and later President of Rice University and Stanford University.
