DESCRIPTION:
The second half offers a lucid, logical presentation of the canonical ensemble and of the grand ensemble, which constitute the theoretical bases for modern advanced equilibrium statistical mechanics.Other topics include the applications of both advanced and elementary theory to a number of interesting problems in physical chemistry — radiation phenomena, the solid state, fluctuations and noise problems, the statistical mechanical aspects of light scattering theory, paramagnetism and magnetic cooling, dielectrics, the theory of electrolyte solutions, nonideal gases, distribut
A true classic in statistical mechanics O. J. Clarkin I have the original McGraw-Hill edition from 1962 which Dover has reprinted (as of 2003) and is now available for about $30.I have been using Davidson's book for several years now and also DA McQuarrie's "Statistical Mechanics." and TL Hill's "An Introduction
