Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

Written by the most distinguished American mathematical physicist of the 19th century, this was the first book to bring together and arrange in logical order the works of Clausius, Maxwell, Boltzmann, and Gibbs himself. The author's lucid, advanced-level text remains a valuable collection of fundamental equations and principles.

Biografía del autor

In 1863 Yale University awarded J. Willard Gibbs (1839–1903) the first American doctorate in engineering. Professor of Mathematical Physics at Yale from 1871 until 1903, Gibbs made important theoretical contributions to many areas of physics, chemistry, and engineering. Together with James Clerk Maxwell and Ludwig Boltzmann, he was instrumental in creating the discipline of statistical mechanics.
