Heat is an interesting form of energy. Not only does it sustain life, make us comfortable and help us prepare our food, but understanding its properties is key to many fields of scientific research.

THIS book is the outcome of the authors' teaching experience, and as one might expect, covers the ground usually required for a university degree. The subject-matter includes the Fourier equation, the ...
