About the Book
"Thermodynamics and the Free Energy of Chemical Substances" by Gilbert Newton Lewis is a classic work that has been highly influential in the field of chemistry since its original publication in 1923. This reprint edition incorporates revisions by Kenneth S. Pitzer and Leo Brewer in the early 1960s, who updated and expanded the text with substantial new material on solution thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, surfaces, and gravitational and electromagnetic fields.
The book provides a detailed and systematic account of the principles of thermodynamics as they apply to chemical systems, making it an essential resource for advanced undergraduates in chemistry and related fields. It offers in-depth coverage of the free energy of chemical substances, and the second edition, published in 1961, was praised by The Journal of Chemical Education for its value as both a reference and a textbook.
This new edition is a comprehensive resource for teachers and students alike, offering a clear and accessible presentation of complex thermodynamic concepts. Whether used as a textbook in advanced courses or as a reference for chemists conducting research, this book continues to be a cornerstone of chemical thermodynamics.
