This Ninth Edition presents a clear, rigorous, and application-oriented treatment of thermal physics, bringing together the macroscopic framework of thermodynamics with the microscopic insights of statistical mechanics. Designed to meet the needs of modern undergraduate and early postgraduate students, the book develops physical intuition alongside analytical skill, making complex ideas both accessible and meaningful. Beginning with the fundamental concepts of temperature, energy, and entropy, the text builds a coherent understanding of thermodynamic systems, laws, and potentials, supported throughout by experimental motivation, data-driven illustrations, and carefully explained measurement techniques. Statistical mechanics is introduced not as a parallel theory, but as a powerful tool for interpreting thermodynamic behaviour and material properties at the microscopic level. Significant emphasis is placed on kinetic theory, transport phenomena, and non-equilibrium processes, offering readers a pathway from classical equilibrium concepts to contemporary problems involving time-dependent and stochastic systems. Mathematical methods are introduced gradually and only where required, ensuring clarity without sacrificing depth. A defining feature of the book is its strong problem-solving focus. An extensive collection of graded solved examples and challenging unsolved problems reinforces conceptual understanding and prepares students for examinations, projects, and advanced study. With its balanced pedagogy, modern outlook, and comprehensive scope, this book remains an indispensable resource for courses in thermodynamics and thermal physics.
