…introduces explicit state counting in medium-sized systems with the help of Excel, then discusses classical thermodynamics in depth, and finally goes into a full discussion Boltzmann factors and statmech. * Fundamentals of Statistical and Thermal Physics, by Frederick Reif: This was (for me) the least bad of the books that I used to teach myself undergraduate statmech while I was in graduate school. (I foolishly arranged to avoid the class as an undergrad.)
Physics -- paper and pencil, in the late 1980s, at Harvard. Books such as Purcell, "Electricity and Magnetism", Reif, "Fundamentals of Statistical and Thermal Physics", Liboff, "Introductory Quantum Mechanics", Sakurai, "Modern Quantum Mechanics", Ashcroft and Mermin, "Solid State Physics", Brown and Churchill, "Complex Variables and Applications", and "Fourier Series…
……借助 Excel 引入了中等规模系统中的显式状态计数，接着深入探讨了经典热力学，最后对玻尔兹曼因子和统计力学展开了全面论述。* 弗雷德里克·雷夫的《统计与热物理学基础》：对我来说，这是我在研究生阶段自学本科统计力学时用过的书里“最不烂”的一本。（我本科时犯傻，故意没选这门课。）
