Designed for both undergraduate and graduate students, this authoritative milestone in the foundational development of thermodynamics provides a unique reference for all physicists and engineers. Basic concepts and applications are discussed in complete detail with attention to generality and logical consistency, removing ambiguities and limitations of traditional presentations. Worked-out examples and end-of-chapter problems illustrate the use of energy and entropy balances as powerful analytical keystones in physics and engineering.The text provides material for undergraduate and graduate courses. At the introductory level, it covers heat engines, stable-equilibrium-state models for ideal-gas, incompressible-fluid and solid behaviors, heat, work and bulk-flow interactions, thermodynamic efficiency, energy conversion systems, energy, and availability/ At the intermediate level, it covers ideal and nonideal mixtures, chemical reactions, chemical equilibrium, and combustion.
At the advanced level, the unique non-traditional order of exposition of the basic concepts and principles (system, property, state, process, first law, energy, equilibrium, stable equilibrium, second law, entropy) allows rigorous general definitions of energy and entropy valid for all systems (large and small, few- and many- particles) and all states (stable and non-stable equilibrium, as well as non-equilibrium). In particular, entropy is defined before and independently of the definitions of temperature and heat, and of the simple-system model for many-particle systems.

Only comes with ONE pillowcase.
Color: White, Size: Queen(Pack of 1)
Pillowcase seems nice. I didn’t read the description closely enough to see it only comes with ONE pillowcase. The photo clearly shows two, which is misleading and the item name states “pillow cases” plural, as if there are two. Then wayyyy down in the description it says pillow cases are sold individually.

Good but slides off pillow
Color: Gray, Size: Standard(Pack of 2)
Ok these are actually cooling and a decent material but they keep sleeping off my pillows and it’s so frustrating. I don’t know if it’s because my pillows and gel memory foam but I cannot keep them on for anything. Because of the price I’m going to keep them just wish they would stay on.

Soft material and feels cool for a few minutes
Color: Gray, Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Color: Gray, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
These pillow cases are extremely soft and smooth to the touch, which feels amazing, but at the same time they do feel slippery especially when the pillows are stacked on top of one another. I noticed that when I used these pillow cases along with another set of pillows with a different material, that they would easily slide around as well. The quality of the pillowcases feel durable even though it may feel soft. I like the light grey color that I chose and since it's a queen sized pillowcase, the memory foam pillows that I have were able to fit easily.
The cooling feature on the material of these pillow cases feels really nice and makes a noticeable difference especially when the weather is starting to get warmer. Although the material will start to feel warm on contact on one side after a few minutes, it will still feel cool once I flip my pillow to the other side. Overall, I like the quality of the material since it feels soft, but for $15 it might seem overpriced.
