Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics —Rebecca KerrIlya Prigogine won the 1977 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his contributions to non equilibrium thermodynamics. This groundbreaking 1962 monograph, written for researchers and graduate students in this field, was his first book length contribution to this subject. Suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in physics and chemistry, the treatment begins with examinations of the Liouville equation, anharmonic solids, and Brownian motion.
