Description
Written by the winner of the 1977 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, this groundbreaking 1962 monograph is an essential work for researchers and graduate students. Topics include the Liouville equation, anharmonic solids, Brownian motion, weakly coupled gases, scattering theory and short-range forces, approach to equilibrium in ionized gases, general kinetic equations, and other topics.
Author Biography
Russian-born Ilya Prigogine (1917 - 2003) taught at the Free University of Brussels, the University of Texas at Austin, and other institutions. For his work on non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and especially his work on dissipative structures, he won the 1977 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
