Información sobre este eBook

The comprehensively updated third edition of a popular introductory statistical thermodynamics text that describes the principles and forces that drive chemical and biological processes.

This widely used, comprehensively updated introductory text on statistical thermodynamics describes the principles and forces that drive chemical and biological processes. It explains how a few simple physical principles cause the complex behaviors of molecules, and how simple models provide surprisingly accurate insights into the workings of the molecular world. Written in an accessible, student-friendly style without compromising rigor, Molecular Driving Forces offers an excellent introduction to the subject for beginners and a valuable resource for experts.


3rd edition highlights:
  • New chapter on the nonequilibrium dynamics of driven, adaptive, and evolving systems
  • New appendix on stochastic dynamics, including master equations and the Fokker-Planck model
  • New vignettes on the Bayes Theorem, reverse osmosis membranes, and the chemiosmotic hypothesis
  • Comprehensively updated examples, references, and end-of-chapter questions
  • Instructor resources available
