I like the postulatory approach.

I am in the process of reading this book. I like the way the concepts are intoduced from scratch using the basic postulates of thermodynamics. This is very different from the way the subject was taught to me in college. The postulatory approach really helps to link all the aspects together and looks at thermodynamics like other branches of physics like mechanics or quantum mechanics which start from a basic set of postulates. The other aspect of the book I like is the large number and variety of probelms that comes with the book. I would like to know if it possible to get the solutions to the problems? Thanks
