"This is a very good book, in terms of both conception and execution...best suited to a first graduate course or an advance undergraduate course in thermodynamics." (Journal of Chemical Education, Vol. 78, No. 6, June 2001)
"The emphasis is on training the student in the application of the theory of thermodynamics...The mathematical tools are considered in detail." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000)
"It is difficult to find another text that has the subject qualities of Professors Klotz's and Rosenberg's textbook. I am pleased to recommend this heartily this exceptionally clearly written, masterfully organised and exclusively produced millennium edition for graduate students as well as experts in the field of physical chemistry..." (Jnl of Thermal Analysis & Calorimetry, Vol 63, 2001)
