Koretsky\u003c\/b\u003e received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley in 1991. He is currently of professor of Chemical Engineering at Oregon State University. His research interests in thin film materials processing, including plasma chemistry and physics, electrochemical processes and semiconductor yield prediction. His teaching interests include integration of microelectronic unit operations into the ChE curriculum and thermodynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e I've taught thermo dozens of times out of four textbooks. Koretsky is the book that the students have appreciated the most and with enthusiasm. I'm very excited about the much clearer grasp of the concepts the students have obtained with this book this semester. The writing is very informative and clear, the choice of topics is perfect and the examples are wonderful. Futhermore, the sophistication of the topics is also at a high level, but is approachable for the students, as the concepts are explained so well. Thanks for making thermodynamics so accessible for students!","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989136294117,"sku":"NP9780470259610","price":194.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780470259610.jpg?v=1761782943","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/engineering-and-chemical-thermodynamics-isbn-9780470259610","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
