In this text, the study of thermodynamics is manipulated against the normal course of study. While students and academics will learn the concepts, formulas, and laws of thermodynamics, they will also begin to understand the historical circumstance behind it all.

Dr. Robert T. Hanlon earned his Sc.D. in chemical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and subsequently conducted post-doctoral research at Karlsruhe University in Germany. His professional career took him to Mobil Oil Research & Development Corporation, the Rohm and Haas Company, and then back to MIT where he is currently involved with their School of Chemical Engineering Practice.
