“The outstanding feature of Advances… is its completeness. If you have ever encountered a problem in understanding or analyzing an aspect of the vdW fluid, the solution to your problem is outlined here. Johnston slowly and incrementally explores every feature of the vdW fluid including its relation to the Lennard-Jones potential via a mean field approximation, its free energy and chemical potential, bulk properties, critical point, corresponding states, Maxwell construction, coexistence region, lever rule, and order parameter. The vdW fluid, unlike the ideal gas, is a perfect test-bed for thermodynamic concepts.”
