商品描述

This book provides an accessible yet thorough introduction to thermodynamics, crafted and class-tested over many years of teaching.

Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this book delivers clear descriptions of how to think about the mathematics and physics involved. The content has been carefully developed in consultation with a large number of instructors, teaching courses worldwide, to ensure wide applicability to modules on thermodynamics.

Modern applications of thermodynamics (in physics and related areas) are included throughout -- something not offered to the same degree by existing texts in the field.

This new edition has been fully updated, each chapter has been rewritten with an emphasis on increased clarity for the reader. Chapters include expanded coverage of chemical thermodynamics, phase transitions, and non-equilibrium thermodynamics.

Split into two parts, part I emphasizes the structure of thermodynamics as a theory, in preparation for a study of statistical mechanics. Part II contains additional topics not normally found in books at this level, such as the Caratheodory formulation of entropy, Negative-temperature thermodynamics, information theory and black hole thermodynamics.

Key Features:

  • Presents a sophisticated approach to the subject that is suitable for advanced undergraduate students and above
  • Includes modern applications of thermodynamics throughout
  • Accompanied by companion volumes on statistical mechanics, which can be used in conjunction with this book on courses which cover both thermodynamics and statistical mechanics

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書提供了一個易於理解但又全面的熱力學介紹，經過多年教學的精心設計和實地測試。

本書適合高年級本科生和研究生，清晰地描述了如何思考所涉及的數學和物理。內容經過與大量全球授課的教師協商，精心開發，以確保對熱力學模組的廣泛適用性。

書中貫穿了熱力學的現代應用（在物理學及相關領域），這是現有領域文本所無法提供的程度。

這一新版已全面更新，每一章都重新編寫，強調提高讀者的清晰度。章節包括擴展的化學熱力學、相變化和非平衡熱力學的內容。

本書分為兩部分，第一部分強調熱力學作為一種理論的結構，為統計力學的學習做準備。第二部分包含一些在此級別的書籍中通常不會出現的額外主題，例如卡拉泰奧多里（Caratheodory）熵的表述、負溫度熱力學、信息理論和黑洞熱力學。

主要特點：
- 提供適合高年級本科生及以上的精緻方法
- 全文包含熱力學的現代應用
- 附有統計力學的伴隨卷，可與本書一起用於涵蓋熱力學和統計力學的課程

作者簡介

James H. Luscombe is Professor of Physics at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He received his PhD in Physics from the University of Chicago in 1983. After post-doctoral positions at the University of Toronto and Iowa State University, he joined the Research Laboratory of Texas Instruments, where he worked on the development of nanoelectronic devices, before joining the Naval Postgraduate School in 1994. He was Chair of the Department of Physics between 2003 and 2009. He teaches a wide variety of topics, including general relativity, statistical mechanics, mathematical methods, and quantum computation.
