Statistical Mechanics is the extended version of McQuarrie's earlier text - Statistical Thermodynamics (USB 1984). This text (previously published by Longman Education) is an accessible introduction to the subject. It contains a large number of problems at the end of each chapter to help students understand the material and to introduce them to selected extensions.
