Written by the most distinguished American mathematical physicist of the 19th century, this was the first book to bring together and arrange in logical order the works of Clausius, Maxwell, Boltzmann, and Gibbs himself. The author's lucid, advanced-level text remains a valuable collection of fundamental equations and principles.

Book Description

Josiah Willard Gibbs (1839-1903) was the greatest American mathematician and physicist of the nineteenth century. He was a pioneer of vector analysis, but his deepest work was in the development of thermodynamics and statistical physics. This book, first published in 1902, gives his mature vision of these subjects.
