Sumario: | A very well-written book, with all thermodynmical concepts explained clearly and with appropriate examples. Exercises are extensive and cover in full detail all the material at the end of each chapter. Though expensive, definitely worth the investment. The statistical mechanics part is greatly entertaining and an enjoyable read. All in all, text is well-balanced. Should become the prescribed text for all introductory course in Thermal Physics.
