✦ Synopsis

These two volumes contain about 1800 pages in only three chapters. The center piece of these volumes (there is also a very pleasant surprise in Chap. 3) is Chapter 2, which contains tables of the ideal gas thermodynamic functions, C 01,, So, (HOT-Ho,)/T, (Go,-Ho,,)lT, A f H o , and AfGo, at various temperatures from 0 to 1500 or 3000 K for nearly 1200 compounds. These functions were calculated using the methods of statistical thermodynamics (see Chap. 1). The input data for these calculations were obtained from a critical evaluation of published results which have been referenced in the explanatory notes accompanying each table, and in some cases, the selected data have also been given.

Such a list of functions immediately brings to mind two very important publications, namely The
