"This textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in physics and physical chemistry covers the major areas of statistical mechanics, concluding with a demonstration of applications of statistical mechanics at the level of current research.". "Intended for a one-semester course, the text includes several "asides" on topics usually omitted from introductory courses, such as the Kirkwood-Wigner theorem and Gibbs' demonstration that the canonical partition function determines the Helmholtz free energy. Numerous problems close the chapters."--BOOK JACKET.
