Three Laws of Nature
A short and entertaining introduction to thermodynamics that uses real-world examples to explain accessibly an important but subtle scientific theory A romantic description of the second law of thermodynamics is that the universe becomes increasingly disordered. But what does that actually mean? Starting with an overview of the three laws of thermodynamics, MacArthur "genius grant" winner R. Stephen Berry explains in this short book the fundamentals of a fundamental science. Readers learn both the history of thermodynamics, which began with attempts to solve everyday engineering problems, and ongoing controversy and unsolved puzzles. The exposition, suitable for both students and armchair physicists, requires no previous knowledge of the subject and only the simplest mathematics, taught as needed. With this better understanding of one science, readers also gain an appreciation of the role of research in science, the provisional nature of scientific theory, and the ways scientific exploration can uncover fundamental truths. Thus, from a science of everyday experience, we learn about the nature of the universe.

The Structure of Matter
The Structure of Matter: An Introduction to Quantum Mechanics originates from the first part of Physical Chemistry, Second Edition, by R. Stephen Berry, Stuart A. Rice, and John Ross (OUP 2000). Published now as a separate volume, The Structure of Matter is designed for introductory quantum mechanics courses at the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate level. Based on a framework of molecular structure and the theory of quantum mechanics, it discusses the nature and behavior of molecules, starting with the simplest atom (hydrogen), and progressing to two-electron atoms, complex diatomic molecules, larger molecules, and intermolecular forces. In keeping with its parent book, this authoritative text is rigorous, challenging, and offers the most comprehensive treatment available, making it a valuable reference for researching chemists and professionals.
Student's Solutions to the Odd-Numbered Problems
Student's Solutions to the Odd Numbered Problems to Accompany Physical Chemistry 2/e by Berry, Rice, and Ross, is a gratis item (CD-ROM) to be given to instructors who have adopted the textbook, hysical Chemistry 2/e by R. Stephen Berry, Stuart A Rice and John Ross. The CD has been prepared by Jospeh N Kushick and Caroline Taylor. The CD contains solutions(provided by the author) to odd numbered problems.
