Looking for online Thermodynamics book or extended review

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding online resources for physics, specifically a comprehensive review of thermodynamics. The user expresses difficulty locating a previous post that compiled such resources and seeks recommendations for free, in-depth thermodynamics summaries to aid in their Physical Chemistry class. They mention using HyperPhysics for concise overviews and reference Princeton's course notes as helpful study materials alongside Kittel and Kroemer's texts. The conversation highlights the need for accessible educational resources in physics, particularly for thermodynamics.

Hello. A long time ago there was a post here of all the resources that we can find online for physics. I tried to find it searching a little bit, with no luck. Anyway, if someone know about that post, let me know,

What I'm interested in is in a good thermodynamics review (or summary (?)). If it is available online (free) it would be better. I joined a class of Physical Chemistry, and I need a quick but in depth review of thermodynamics.

I love hyperphysics for concise overviews of lots of topics.

Last semester I used notes from http://pupgg.princeton.edu/~groth/phy301f05/index.html at Princeton to supplement my study with Kittel and Kroemer.

Hope these might help, there is plenty out there though.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
