I am studying kinetic theory. The Boltzmann equation can be derived from the liouville equation, I want to know how to deduce it , which books explore the question.
I am reading a book( the title is kinetic theory, the author is R.L.Liboff), in this book the method proposed by Prigogine is used to do the work, but there are some questions I cannot understand, if there are some reference books which can be used to study the problem. Thanks.
