The renowned Oxford Chemistry Primers series, which provides focused
introductions to a range of important topics in chemistry, has been
refreshed and updated to suit the needs of today's students, lecturers,
and postgraduate researchers. The rigorous, yet accessible, treatment of
each subject area is ideal for those wanting a primer in a given topic
to prepare them for more advanced study or research.
The learning features provided, including end-of-book problems and
online multiple-choice questions, encourage active learning and promote
understanding. Furthermore, frequent diagrams and marginal notes help to
enhance students' understanding of these essential areas of chemistry.
Statistical Thermodynamics gives a concise and accessible account of
this fundamental topic by emphasizing the underlying physical chemistry,
and using this to introduce the mathematics in an approachable way. The
material is presented in short, self-contained sections, making it
flexible to teach and learn from, and concludes with the application of
the theory to real systems.
The Online Resource Center to accompany Statistical Thermodynamics
features:
For Instructors:
*Figures from the book available to download
