内容説明
Molecular Driving Forces, Second Edition is an introductory statistical thermodynamics text that describes the principles and forces that drive chemical and biological processes. It demonstrates how the complex behaviors of molecules can result from a few simple physical processes, and how simple models provide surprisingly accurate insights into the workings of the molecular world.
Widely adopted in its First Edition, Molecular Driving Forces is regarded by teachers and students as an accessible textbook that illuminates underlying principles and concepts. The Second Edition includes two brand new chapters: (1) "Microscopic Dynamics" introduces single molecule experiments; and (2) "Molecular Machines" considers how nanoscale machines and engines work. "The Logic of Thermodynamics" has been expanded to its own chapter and now covers heat, work, processes, pathways, and cycles. New practical applications, examples, and end-of-chapter questions are integrated throughout the revised and updated text, exploring topics in biology, environmental and energy science, and nanotechnology. Written in a clear and reader-friendly style, the book provides an excellent introduction to the subject for novices while remaining a valuable resource for experts.

Great Physical Chemistry Book
2011/1/12
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
This book is very easy to understand and has plenty of examples imbedded within the text. Perfect for upper division physical chemistry classes. I bought this specifically for a class but found that I enjoyed reading it. Dill (the author) lays out the facts of physical chemistry almost like a story that is fascinating to read.

This is an excellent book

Dill and Bromberg's effort is extraordinary. I don't think there are other text books out there that explain complex matters in such a rigorous but accessible way. I would recommend this book to anyone who's taking an undergrad or grad course in thermodynamics, statistical thermodynamics or anything remotely similar, as this book will really enlight you. It may happen because of the main text, the examples or the exercises, but it will happen.
I've had the chance to read both the first and second edition. Information has been reorganized a little bit and the new chapters are great. Go get this book.

Great book at an intro level on the topic

形式:ペーパーバック
Ken Dill brings a unique perspective to what he does, and focuses a great deal on making material accessible and easily understandable. That's true of this book, which is really excellent and well-regarded. What the book does well is clearly explain what it touches on, with examples, toy models, and interesting applications. However, it by no means covers every topic that could possibly be covered, nor does it necessarily provide every detail one might like. So if you are after a book that provides a complete picture of the area, this is not the book for you. On the other hand, if you're after a great introduction (at a level a talented, advanced undergraduate student in the sciences can understand) to this area, this is the book for you.
