Fundamentals of classical statistical thermodynamics : dissipation, relaxation and fluctuation theorems [E-Book] / Denis J. Evans, Debra J. Searles, and Stephen R. Williams.
Both a comprehensive overview and a treatment at the appropriate level of detail, this textbook explains thermodynamics and generalizes the subject so it can be applied to small nano- or biosystems, arbitrarily far from or close to equilibrium. In addition, nonequilibrium free energy theorems are co...
