Rezension zu „Entropy and Energy, w. CD-ROM “
From the reviews:"This is a wonderful book. In 263 pages, Müller and Weiss provide a superb, all-round, profusely illustrated review of thermodynamics, from its origins and conceptual foundations to its contemporary statistical physics aspects, and to some of its more recent applications in such areas as meteorology and mathematical sociology. ... Given the accessibility of the material I'd certainly recommend it to advanced undergraduate students from a wide range of sciences." (Dean Rickles, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2007 j)"The authors of the present book understand energy and entropy - or loosely termed 'cause and chance' - as two parameters being in a universal competition. ... The book may be read by newcomers in thermodynamics ... ." (Claudia-Veronika Meister, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1116 (18), 2007)
