The Concepts and Logic of Classical Thermodynamics as a Theory of Heat Engines [E-Book] : Rigorously Constructed upon the Foundation Laid by S. Carnot and F. Reech / by Clifford Ambrose Truesdell, Subramanyam Bharatha.
Mon but n'a jamais be de m'occuper des ces matieres comme physicien, mais seulement comme /ogicien ... F. REECH, 1856 I do not think it possible to write the history of a science until that science itself shall have been understood, thanks to a clear, explicit, and decent logical structure...
