"An extremely large number of worked examples and end-of-chapter
problems supplement this excellent book."--Science & Technology
"The writing is exceptionally clear, and explanations are lucid and
sound."--The Chemical Educator
"This book represents a sort of down-sized version of the Magnum
Opus by the same authors: Physical Chemistry, A Molecular Approach.
For those readers who are already familiar with this book and like
it, I can say that: this one gives you basically the same goodies
but in a more digestible form...McQuarrie is emerging as one of the
the best writers on undergrad thermodynamics and statistical
mechanics around..."--Journal of Statistical Physics
