Book Overview

Presents a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of thermodynamics while retaining an engineering perspective and, in so doing, provides a resource with considerable flexibility for the inclusion of material on thermodynamics. Updated for this Third Edition, it reflects an increased emphasis on environmental issues and a recognition of the steadily growing use of computers in the study of thermodynamics and solution of thermodynamic problems.

It's a CLASSIC!!!

Ok, lets's face it: "Thermodynamics is just HARD!" That being said, you should look for a good book, if you want to learn the basic principles. What most of the people don't understand is the depth of the first chapters of this book. They are the very basis for what's next. Every enginner I know have used this book, since the 1970's and still counting. It is not a very "easy-beast-to-tame", but once you master the basics everything else will be a consequence. Classics are like that! ; )

Good reference

I like this book as a reference/review, perhaps as a companion to other subject material. It doesn't have a lot or worked examples and so can't really be thought of as an introductory tutorial. It is very thorough and provides a moderately deep overview of the subject. Undergrad engineering math is a prereq for understanding the book. It is very expensive as a new book; however, in used form I think it is well worth the price (at just a fraction of the new price).

The Best of Ternodynamics

Is a book wich explain detaily, all the laws on termodynamics, has a very good examples and excercises. Another issue, it works on International systems Units, and is very good because the world is changing for using that units on all the industries, it has conversion factor for English and metrics units. I recommend it as the best book for the begining on Termodynamic studies.
