Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine condition. Good only dust jacket. Fourth Edition. Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey: Prentice - Hall, Inc., 1972. Near Fine condition in Good only dust jacket (several small chips and tears at the edges). Inner hinges are perfectly sound. No underlining. No highlighting. Appendices. Index. Beneath Prof…essor's Kauzmann's name on the half-title page is his note: "This copy contains corrections." Indeed, on several pages throughout the book, Kauzmann has made brief marginal corrections and/or clarifications to the text. Laid-in is a 5-page outline for Kauzmann's course at Princeton Univerity, CHEMISTRY 305, PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY, for which this book was required reading. [This copy bears the signature stamp (in 5 places) of Professor Walter Kauzmann of Princeton University. Kauzmann's work on the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos in 1944-45 contributed to the successful development of the atomic bomb, nicknamed "Fat Man," which incinerated Nagasaki, and was soon followed by Japan's capitulation. It was in 1948 that Kauzmann's classic review of liquid supercooling and glass formation drew attention to temperatures at which entropies and enthalpies of liquid and crystal phases would appear to become equal. The collection of such "Kauzmann temperatures" produced characteristic curves in the temperature-pressure (T, p) plane. Professor Kauzmann was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1966]. Bound in the original green cloth. Complete with dust jacket. Fourth Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/Good only dust jacket. 8vo. xiii, 977pp. .

Leslie Richard Groves Jr. (1896-1970) was the director of the Manhattan Project during World War II. A West Point graduate of 1918, Groves initially worked on military construction projects, including the Pentagon, before being appointed in 1942 to oversee the development of the atomic bomb. He managed the project's vast industrial, scientific, and logistical operations, coordinating work at sites such as Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, and Hanford, and worked closely with J. Robert Oppenheimer. Groves was portrayed by Matt Damon in the 2023 film, Oppenheimer, which won an Academy Award for Best Picture.
