The first volume of the new edition of a comprehensive collection on heat and thermodynamics includes about half of the content from the previous two volumes, with an additional paper that was previously omitted. The new edition, consisting of five volumes, is prepared by Sanborn C. Brown, an expert on Rumford. The first volume features concise and accurate notes, while the subsequent volumes focus on practical writings, covering topics such as practical applications of heat, devices and techniques, light and armament, and public institutions. This distribution aims to provide a well-organized collection of documents that highlight the social aspects of science during a period of its active development. Dr. S. Simons has written an introductory textbook on quantum mechanics aimed at undergraduate mathematics students. The book emphasizes the mathematical apparatus of quantum mechanics, particularly wave mechanical methods, and includes topics like the general operator calculus, non-hermitian operators, spin, identical particles, and stationary perturbation theory. While the book lacks physical applications and focuses more on mathematical formalism, it serves as a valuable resource for students learning quantum mechanics in an applied mathematics context. The review suggests that the book may not be suitable for those seeking a deeper understanding of physical principles, but it can be useful for those focusing on mathematical skills. The book "Physics of Simple Liquids" edited by H. N. V. Temperley, J. S. Rowlinson, and G. S. Rushbrooks provides a comprehensive overview of the theoretical and experimental aspects of simple liquids. Historically, gases and crystalline solids have been more amenable to microscopic theoretical treatment, but recent efforts have focused on liquids with relatively simple molecular structures, such as rare gases and certain diatomic molecules. The book covers analytical theory, computer simulations, and experimental methods, including ultrasonic techniques, X-ray diffraction, light scattering, and neutron scattering. It also discusses kinetic theory and correlation functions, making it a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in the physics of simple liquids.The first volume of the new edition of a comprehensive collection on heat and thermodynamics includes about half of the content from the previous two volumes, with an additional paper that was previously omitted.
