Title: Not for students who are starting out in thermo
Review: This book is really complex and not helpful to learn from if you've never taken (or briefly taken) thermodynamics before. You definitely need the teacher to explain what is going on in the book (which mine doesn't so relying on the book doesn't help). The problems are mostly different from the examples in the book and definitely not straightforward at all (I would not have been able to solve some of the problems if my teacher didn't show me how to do them because some are tricky and you need to know little tricks here and there). Furthermore, if you are one of those persons that needs to see almost every step to solving problems, this book skips quite a bit of steps and leaves you wondering how they got there. It would be a great book if you already know thermodynamics and are a graduate student. For those taking thermo (for some crazy requisite, like I need to despite the fact that I'm in environmental engineering) not a good textbook.
