A modern, accessible, and applied approach to chemical thermodynamics.
Thermodynamics is central to the practice of chemical engineering, yet students sometimes feel that the discipline
is too abstract while they are studying the subject.
By providing an applied and modern approach, Stanley Sandler's Chemical, Biochemical, and Engineering Thermodynamics,
Fourth Edition helps students see the value and relevance of studying thermodynamics to all areas of chemical engineering,
and gives them the depth of coverage they need to develop a solid understanding of the key principles in the field.
