1.	[no image]	Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer from John Wiley & Sons Inc Customer Review: This textbook cotains subjects that are above most undergradute courses, for it presents advanced content that is often ommitted.

2.		Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics from Wiley Price: $117.99 Customer Review: Thermodynamics concerns mainly two parts, in my opinion. The first part concerns with exchange of heat and work, and the second part concerns with equilibrium including both phase equilibrium and reaction equilibrium. The introuction level book focuses on the first part with a brief introduction to... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.	[no image]	Modern Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, Lab Manual from Goodheart-Willcox Co Price: $19.00 Customer Review: I was specifically looking for detailed information on how to adjust a commercial dehumidifier, and the book just had short bits and pieces on those units. No real specifics on how to set up the pressures and charges for dehumidifiers. Otherwise, the book is fabulous. Great diagrams and loads... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Introduction to Heat Transfer, 3rd Edition from John Wiley & Sons Price: $69.59 Customer Review: the book is ok. i wish there was more examples; otherwise, its good. i learned what i needed to learn	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Fluid Mechanics with Student Resources DVD from McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Price: $120.98 Customer Review: From personal experience, any textbook by Dr.Cengel deserves recognition, for it is not only easy to understand, but also provides the required preparation to succeed as an engineer.

7.		Thermodynamics, Statistical Thermodynamics, & Kinetics (2nd Edition) from Prentice Hall Price: $70.00 Customer Review: As a undergrad. student majoring in chemistry, this text book is a joke. Engel's books are junk. Go to lecture, listen to professor explaining is way better than just reading book. I highly recommend people stay off from Engel's books either thermodynamic or quantum mechanics. For statistical... more info	Customer Rating: 1.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics (The Mcgraw-Hill Chemical Engineering Series) from McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Price: $165.00 Customer Review: This book explains the basics of thermodynamics very well.

9.		Fundamentals of Thermodynamics from Wiley Price: $136.45 Customer Review: Book showed up quick and was in great shape just as the seller described. Would buy from again.	Customer Rating: 2.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Introduction to the Thermodynamics of Materials from Taylor & Francis Price: $46.93 Customer Review: This book is just plain awful. How can a book that's been through 5 editions and 30+ years be this bad? Typographical errors are rampant, in the text, the equations, and even a few figures. The notation is inconsistent both across and within chapters. This could all be dismissed as a superficial... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		Fundamentals of Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer from Wiley Price: $51.39 Customer Review: Great book, good format, good pictures but not too busy. Does a good job of explaining clearly and giving good examples and practice problems.	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Chemical, Biochemical, and Engineering Thermodynamics from Wiley Price: $89.72 Customer Review: This book was intended for undergrads. However, I feel this book is more advanced for that unless this is at least your second thermo book. With that said, this is an excellent book on chemical engineering thermodynamics. It has many many excellent sections, and too many too list. But it is not... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		Student's Solutions Manual for Thermodynamics, Statistical Thermodynamics, & Kinetics from Prentice Hall Price: $8.00 Customer Review: I found this textbook to be very difficult to understand. It's very frustrating when important concepts and examples are left to be learned by working homework problems. It's much better to have a firm foundation of understanding and then expand from that in the homework problems instead of... more info	Customer Rating: 2.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


14.		Introduction to Thermal Systems Engineering: Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat Transfer from Wiley Price: $81.49 Customer Review: Everything was great. The only thing was they didn't tell my anything about if they shipped it or not. So I had no idea when it was coming and could not track the shipment.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.		Four Laws That Drive the Universe from Oxford University Press, USA Customer Review: Peter Atkins' "Four Laws" is a small book that tackles a big subject. Probably the biggest difficulty for the general reader would be the Boltzmann distribution, that Atkins introduces in the first chapter. The rest of the book explains heat, energy, and work (First Law); entropy, efficiency, and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Fundamentals of Statistical and Thermal Physics (McGraw-Hill Series in Fundamentals of Physics) from McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Price: $160.00 Customer Review: This is hands-down the best thermal physics book I know if you want to understand thermal physics at a deep level. This is probably an undesirable book if you only want to apply laws written by others; this is meant to give a firm, complete, general understanding of thermal physics in all... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		Molecular Driving Forces: Statistical Thermodynamics in Chemistry & Biology from Garland Science Price: $68.48 Customer Review: I feel no need to explain this. This book is absolutely great. Buy and read it.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Luckily, my teacher... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


23.		Entropy Demystified: The Second Law Reduced to Plain Common Sense from World Scientific Publishing Company Price: $24.05 Customer Review: This book is for everyone who has heard about entropy, but who cannot understand what it is, thinking it is something mysterious and impossible to understand.

25.		Gunpowder: Alchemy, Bombards, and Pyrotechnics : The History of the Explosive That Changed the World from Basic Books Price: $5.04 Customer Review: This is a quick and engaging read and should be regarded as being more for entertainment than education. Anyone who has any prior knowledge on the subject will likely not get a whole lot out of it. My main issue with this book is the condescending nature with which the author regards previous... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


26.		Fundamentals of Thermal-Fluid Sciences with Student Resource CD from McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math Price: $145.54 Customer Review: The fluid dynamics portion of the book is rather well done, and provides a decent introduction to what can be a confusing topic. If the book was only that part I probably would have given it 5 stars. The thermodynamics portion really brings it down. The thermodynamics portion is almost useless. It... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
