Softcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Thermodynamics by Enrico Fermi, originally published in 1956 as part of the Dover Books on Physics series, is an exceptional softcover edition that effortlessly blends accessibility and scientific rigor. This copy features green and white laminated softcovers with black print…, retaining the original list price of $1.75 on the coversa nostalgic feature for collectors. The covers are in good condition, with light wear at the lower corner near the spine of the front cover and minor peeling of the laminate at the edges. There are no significant creases, and the binding is square and tight, ensuring reliability for continued use. The interior pages are clean and unmarked, and there is an organization stamp that has been neatly marked out on the half-title page.Recognized as a modern classic in the field of science, this book is based on a series of lectures delivered by Enrico Fermi at Columbia University. It is celebrated for its elementary treatment of complex topics, coupled with an exceptional clarity and logical arrangement of material, making it a crucial resource for physics students and interested general readers alike. The text assumes a basic knowledge of thermometry and calorimetry but does not require advanced mathematics beyond calculus, ensuring accessibility for a broad audience.The book's partial contents cover a wide range of important topics, including thermodynamic systems; the first and second laws of thermodynamics (with applications such as adiabatic transformations and the Carnot cycle); entropy and its properties; thermodynamic potentials; chemical equilibria in gases; the principle of Le Chatelier; dilute solutions; osmotic pressure; vapor pressure; and Nernst's theorem. Additional subjects include the thermodynamics of gaseous reactions, thermal ionization, and the thermionic effect. These topics are presented with precision and accessibility, ensuring readers gain a comprehensive understanding of the principles of thermodynamics.Enrico Fermi, known as the "father of the atomic age," was a pioneering physicist whose contributions to both theoretical and experimental physics remain unmatched. Winner of the 1938 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on neutron irradiation and related discoveries in nuclear reactions, Fermi also led the team that achieved the first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction in 1942. His enduring impact on science is reflected in this book, a prime example of his ability to distill complex concepts into clear, relatable teaching. Fermi's quote, "There are two possible outcomes: If the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a measurement. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery," eloquently captures his scientific spirit.This book has been a staple of Dover's physics program since its 1956 reprint, standing as a testament to Fermi's brilliance and dedication to education. It will be carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery, with added measures to protect it from the elements. A USPS electronic tracking number will be provided free of charge. If you wish to see additional photographs or have further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. This is more than a bookit's a landmark in the history of science, created by one of the most revered physicists of the 20th century.
