In the early 1960s, well-known chemists Kenneth S. Pitzer and Leo Brewer revised and updated it, adding substantial material on solution thermodynamics, results in statistical mechanics, surfaces, gravitational and electromagnetic fields, and other areas. \u003cbr\u003e Upon the second edition's 1961 publication, \u003ci\u003eThe Journal of Chemical Education\u003c\/i\u003e noted: \"The book will undoubtedly resume its place as a constant guide and reference for chemists using thermodynamics in their research, and as a textbook and reference for classes in the application of thermodynamics to chemistry.\" This new edition of a foundational work will be welcomed by teachers in the field. \u003cbr\u003e For advanced undergraduates in chemistry and related fields.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGilbert Newton Lewis (1875-1946) was Dean of the College of Chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley. \u003cbr\u003e Merle Randall (1888-1950) was a colleague of Gilbert Newton Lewis on the faculty of the University of California, Berkeley. \u003cbr\u003e Kenneth S.
