A major goal of this text is to impress studentswith the practical nature of thermodynamics.
Reliance on mathematics is minimized, but atno sacrifice of rigor. Topics such as the second law are presentedindependently of statistical arguments, and developed as a naturalconsequence of physical experience.
An experimental rather than an abstract approach,to the development of the second law shows how this theorycan be used in real situations.
The "free body diagram" approachto problem solving gives students confidence that this analysistechnique will always be successful.
Numerous examples show students in detail how the principles of thermodynamics areapplied to real situations.
