NOT AVAILABLE IN NORTH AMERICA AND CANADA Following in the wake of Chang‎'‎s two other best‎-selling physical chemistry textbooks ‎(‎Physical Chemistry for the Chemical and Biological Sciences and Physical Chemistry for the Biosciences‎)‎‎,‎ this new title introduces laser spectroscopist Jay Thoman ‎(‎Williams College‎)‎ as co‎-author‎.‎ This new text has been comprehensively reviewed regarding both level and scope‎.‎ Targeted to a mainstream physical chemistry course‎,‎ this text features extensively revised chapters on quantum mechanics and spectroscopy‎,‎ many new chapter‎-ending problems‎,‎ and updated references‎,‎ while biological topics have been largely relegated to the previous two textbooks‎.‎ Other topics added include the law of corresponding states‎,‎ the Joule‎-Thomson effect‎,‎ the meaning of entropy‎,‎ multiple equilibria and coupled reactions‎,‎ and chemiluminescence and bioluminescence‎.‎ One way to gauge the level of this new text is that students who have used it will be well prepared for their GRE exams in the subject‎.‎ Careful pedagogy and clear writing throughout combine to make this an excellent choice for your physical chemistry course‎.‎ Support materials are available for this title‎.‎ For more details please contact booksales@rsc‎.‎org "With expanded coverage and more depth‎,‎ Chang‎'‎s newest book is now an excellent fit for students on the BS Chemistry track‎.‎ It will provide them with the rigorous foundations knowledge they need for advanced studies in any sub‎-disciplines of chemistry‎,‎ including biochemistry/biophysical chemistry‎.‎" ‎-Taina Chao‎,‎ State University of New York‎,‎ Purchase "The most student‎-friendly P Chem text available‎.‎" ‎-Howard Mayne‎,‎ University of New Hampshire "I expect this textbook will be high on the list for instructors seeking a thorough‎,‎ integrated approach to the subject of Physical Chemistry‎,‎ combined with a clear and conversational writing style‎.‎" ‎-Alan Van Orden‎,‎ Colorado State University "The new Chang/Thoman text is very good‎.‎ I like its approach and it is very easy to read and well organized‎.‎ In my opinion‎,‎ this text makes a much better approach to Physical Chemistry than the other texts currently sold‎.‎" ‎-Mark Obrovac‎,‎ Dalhousie University
