The Laws Of Thermodynamics: Understanding Heat And Energy Transfers (LIBRARY OF PHYSICS

by Rose McCarthy

Written in an accessible language atypical of most physics textbooks, this book frames the progression of the development of the laws of thermodynamics in a historical context. The author provides applications of the laws with which students can easily identify, offering practical illustrations to support these examples. Key terms and important equations are carefully defined as they are introduced and used throughout the book.

Still don't understand heat and energy transfers. Takes me a few times to really soak this stuff up.
