An applications-oriented text, this revised edition includes new techniques and now has expanded coverage of Van der Waals equations of state, behaviour of electrolytes in aqueous solutions, and applications of thermodynamics in biochemical engineering. A diskette is included for computations.
This book is well written and explains thermo science in detail. Not only does this book teach the theory; it teaches how to apply the theory in the design of real chemical systems. This book is tough sleding...although not as tough as Sandler's book on thermo, which is also, in my opinion, and better book. IMy only real dislike of this book is the formating...I read this book for long hours at a time in my thermo class (it was one of three books required for the course) and I must say the text and page layout of the book really bothered me.
