DESCRIPTION:
About the Author Antonio C. . Lasaga is Professor of Geology and Geophysics at Yale University
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. Chapters focus on such theoretical topics as rate laws of chemical reactions, transport theory, diffusion, irreversible thermodynamics, nucleation theory, and the theory of crystal growth and dissolution. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.. The Earth is shaped by processes as fleeting as molecular motion and as slow as the movement of tectonic plates. These theories help to explain such kinetic processes as molecular complexation
