Presenting an introduction/review of the basic concepts of thermodynamics in a more qualitative manner than most traditional thermodynamics texts, this work is written in a colloquial style, and provides readers with an easy-to-understand reference to basic thermodynamic principles. Qualitative problems are designed give readers a more intuitive understanding of the subject. Examples and practical applications from a number of diverse fields - astronomy, medicine, and information theory - are included.
