Reading Up On Thermodynamics

 

I am no uber-meister of thermodynamics either. That PhD thing I got helps, but I too have to go back, re-read the basics and then build up to the relevant literature on the subject I am studying. (This is true of all scientific work; you are always reviewing the basics.)

 

Oh so true. It's one reason I spend time on the forms at this blog's host, Science Forums (dot NET) — answering questions forces me to review basics that might have atrophied. It's a constant battle.

 

Anyhow, I did (and continue to do) a lot of re-reading of my favorite thermo texts

 

I understand the individual words in "favorite thermo texts", but taken together it makes no sense to me. Thermo being one of my least favorite parts of physics and all that. Read and comment on the full post
