Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The sixth edition of Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach moves students toward a clear understanding and a firm grasp of the basic principles of thermodynamics.

This SI edition title communicates directly with tomorrow's engineers in a simple yet precise manner that encourages creative thinking - and the writing style appeals to students and lecturers alike.

For instructors : This title is now accompanied by ARIS - McGraw-Hill's powerful and flexible course management system. Easy to use, it contains over 700 new questions and problems, animations and the ability to assign and grade text-specific homework.

For students : Free resource DVD included containing:

* Limited Academic Version of EES (Engineering Equation Solver) software with scripted solutions to selected text problems

* Physical experiments in thermodynamics with videos and complete write-ups of the experiments, as well as actual data

* Interactive Thermodynamics Tutorial to reinforce student learning of thermodynamics concepts.

Cengel also offers Hands On Mechanics . This media product provides detailed instructions on to build proven, classroom tested, effective 3-D teaching tools using materials found in any lab or local hardware store.
