Properties relative to ideal solutions; 6. Relations among relations; Part III. Multiphase and Reacting Systems: 7. Transfers, transformations, and equilibria; 8. Criteria for observability; 9. Phase diagrams for real systems; Part IV. Engineering Calculations: 10. Options for equilibrium calculations; 11. Elementary computational procedures; 12. Selected applications; Afterword; Appendices: A. Tools from the calculus; B. Elements of linear algebra; C. Solutions to cubic equations; D. Vapor pressures of selected fluids; E. Model parameters for G excess; F. A stability condition for binaries; G. Notation in variational calculus; H. Triangular diagrams; I. Lagrange multipliers; J. NRTL models; K. Simple algorithms for binary VLLE; Notation; Index.

Review of the hardback: 'The book is a well-written text for students of classical chemical thermodynamics. It is easy to read and has a clear explanation of the derivation and usefulness and is well worth considering.' Chemistry in Australia
