Sufficiently rigorous for introductory or intermediate graduate courses, this text helps students acquire valuable investigative tools, presenting a comprehensive scope of the techniques and limitations of statistical mechanics. Clear and readable, the treatment follows a logical development from elementary to advanced theories. 82 figures. 15 tables. 1962 edition. Unabridged republication of the edition published by McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1962.
Statistical Mechanics: Principles and Selected Applications by Terrell L. Hill Standard text covers classical statistical mechanics, quantum statistical mechanics, relation of statistical mechanics to thermodynamics, plus fluctuations, theory of imperfect gases and condensation, distribution functions and the liquid state, more.
Algebraic Methods in Statistical Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory by Dr. Gérard G. Emch This systematic algebraic approach offers a careful formulation of the problems' physical motivations as well as self-contained descriptions of the mathematical methods for arriving at solutions. 1972 edition.
Introduction to Knot Theory by Richard H. Crowell, Ralph H. Fox Appropriate for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this text by two renowned mathematicians was hailed by the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society as "a very welcome addition to the mathematical literature." 1963 edition.
Exactly Solved Models in Statistical Mechanics by Rodney J. Baxter Exploration of two-dimensional lattice models examines basic statistical mechanics, Ising models, spherical models, ice-type models, corner transfer matrices, and elliptic functions. 1982 edition, with author's 2007 update on subsequent developments.
