/sci/ I come to you for advice, pic unrelated
Engineering student here and yes I realize where I'm posting
What are some thermodynamics books?
To make the thread more general after this initial question, what are some good engineering books?
Plan on diving into some thermo over the coming summer break and was looking for some good books.
All opinions welcome
sacred geometry, platonic solids, flower of life, the golden mean, phi....spirit and math do come together.

I checked the wiki, but was hoping someone would have more input than those 3 thermo books

The one we're using in my class is "Thermal Physics" by Ralph Baierlein. It's pretty alright, there's a lot of quantum physics and kinda obscure applications that relate to the author's field of research, but overall I'm learning a lot from it. I wanna warn you though that probably a good half of the equations in the book are written in this format:
(number of wave modes in the frequency range [math] \nu +d \nu )=b \nu ^4 d \nu [/math]
It's helpful at times but gets a little annoying when doing the problems and you have no clear variables.
This is for mechanical thermo btw
Don't you die on me
