Theory of Simple Liquids

The third edition of Theory of Simple Liquids is an updated, advanced, self-contained introduction to the principles of liquid-state theory. It presents the modern, molecular theory of thermodynamic interfacial and dynamical properties of small molecules or ions. This book is based on numerical simulations.
