The book "Physics Of Thermal Phenomena" offers a comprehensive introduction to thermodynamics, a fundamental discipline of physics that deals with macroscopic properties such as pressure, temperature, chemical potential, and volume. It highlights the development of thermodynamics and its laws, which were formulated long before the emergence of detailed atomic theories. The author, Cliff Orori Mosiori, explains the zeroth, first, second, and third laws of thermodynamics and provides illustrative examples from thermochemistry. The book is particularly valuable for students and professionals seeking a deeper understanding of thermodynamic principles and their applications in chemistry and physics. It becomes clear that while thermodynamics can predict the direction and extent of chemical reactions, it does not address the speed of these processes, which is covered in chemical kinetics.
