The last few decades have seen the development of a general approach to thermodynamic theory. Continuum thermodynamics has demonstrated to us how we can build a theory of the dynamics of heat rather than of statics. In this book I would like to transfer what I have leamed about the general theory to an introductory level and to apptications in the sciences and engineering. Two elements combine to make this presentation of thermodynamics distinct. First of alI, taking as the foundation the fundamental ideas that have been developed in continuum thermodynamics allows one to combine the classical theory of Lhermodynamics and Lhe cheory of heat transfer into a single edifice. Second, didactic tools have been built that make it not just simple, but rather natural and inevitable to use entropy as the thermal quantity with which to start the exposition. The ouLcome is a course that is both fundamental and geared toward applications in engineering and the sciences.
