Striving to explore the subject in as simple a manner as possible, this book helps readers understand the elusive concept of entropy. Derivations are worked through step-by-step and important applications are highlighted in over 20 worked examples. Innovative aspects of the book include the construction of statistical entropy, the derivation of the entropy of classical systems from purely classical assumptions, and a statistical thermodynamics approach to the ideal Fermi and ideal Bose gases.
The book also features a glossary giving definitions for all essential terms, a time line showing important developments, and list of books for further study. Nearly 50 end-of-chapter exercises test readers' understanding. It is an ideal supplement to undergraduate courses in physics, engineering, chemistry and
