I think the text was a little too difficult for beginners and the author goes a little too in depth without making the basic concepts as clear as they could have been made. However, the examples and questions are exemplary.

Dificil la trama, aprobé la materia pero aun no se si la entropia es un personaje bueno o malo.

2.5/3
It was such a pain in the ass to use this textbook during exams. Why, I mean whyyyy would you refer to graphs from like Chapter 3 and equations from Chapter 5 when you're in fact all the way into chapter 13?

Nothing compares... nothing compares to you Atkins :(

This book is comprehensive but may be difficult to understand as a beginner, especially for more abstract concepts like fugacity. For students' exam preparation, would recommend reading this together with a supplementary book, preferably one that demonstrates how the thermodynamics concepts are applied to solving numerical problems in exams. Can check out "Engineering Problems for Undergraduate Students - Over 250 worked examples with step-by-step guidance" by Springer, there are some pretty good example problems with worked out solutions in there, they helped me so just to share.

... especially the appendixes! The only bad thing about its appendixes are that the lists are all too limited!
