| Abstract
|
:
|
Practical Chemical Thermodynamics for Geoscientists was designed and battle-tested in Professor Fegley's popular introductory thermodynamics course offered to advanced undergraduate and graduate students. This book will provide a strong theoretical foundation and emphasizes practical applications to problems in geology, geophysics, geochemistry, and materials sciences
