Molecular Driving Forces Statistical Thermodynamics in Chemistry and Biology PDF Free Download

Molecular Driving Forces, Second Edition is an introductory statistical thermodynamics text that describes the principles and forces that drive chemical and biological processes. It demonstrates how the complex behaviors of molecules can result from a few simple physical processes, and how simple models provide surprisingly accurate insights into the workings of the molecular world. Widely adopted in its First Edition, Molecular Driving Forces is regarded by teachers and students as an accessible textbook that illuminates underlying principles and concepts. The Second Edition includes two brand new chapters:”Microscopic Dynamics” introduces single molecule experiments; and “Molecular Machines” considers how nanoscale machines and engines work.
