A Large Number Of Exercises Of A Broad Range Of Difficulty Make This Book Even More Usefula Good Addition To The Literature On Thermodynamics At The Undergraduate Level.' Philosophical Magazinealthough Written On An Introductory Level, This Wideranging Text Provides Extensive Coverage Of Topics Of Current Interest In Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics. Indeed, Certain Traditional Topics Are Given Somewhat Condensed Treatment To Allow Room For A Survey Of More Recent Advances.The Book Is Divided Into Four Major Sections. Part I Deals With The Principles Of Quantum Statistical Mechanics And Includes Discussions Of Energy Levels, States And Eigenfunctions, Degeneracy And Other Topics. Part Ii Examines Systems Composed Of Independent Molecules Or Of Other Independent Subsystems. Topics Range From Ideal Monatomic Gas And Monatomic Crystals To Polyatomic Gas And Configuration Of Polymer Molecules And Rubber Elasticity. An Examination Of Systems Of Interacting Molecules Comprises The Nine Chapters In Part Ill, Reviewing Such Subjects As Lattice Statistics, Imperfect Gases And Dilute Liquid Solutions. Part Iv Covers Quantum Statistics And Includes Sections On Fermidirac And Boseeinstein Statistics, Photon Gas And Freevolume Theories Of Quantum Liquids.Each Chapter Includes Problems Varying In Difficulty Ranging From Simple Numerical Exercises To Smallscale 'Research' Propositions. In Addition, Supplementary Reading Lists For Each Chapter Invite Students To Pursue The Subject At A More Advanced Level. Readers Are Assumed To Have Studied Thermodynamics, Calculus, Elementary Differential Equations And Elementary Quantum Mechanics.Because Of The Flexibility Of The Chapter Arrangements, This Book Especially Lends Itself To Use In A Oneor Twosemester Graduate Course In Chemistry, A Onesemester Senior Or Graduate Course In Physics Or An Introductory Course In Statistical Mechanics.
