Molecular Theory of Solutions

Focusing on the molecular theory of mixtures and solutions, this book revitalizes the Kirkwood and Buff theory, which has been largely overlooked for two decades. It introduces a contemporary framework that allows for a deeper analysis of mixtures from a microscopic perspective, moving beyond traditional methods that rely on excess thermodynamic quantities. By emphasizing local properties, it enhances and complements existing knowledge, offering a more comprehensive understanding of mixtures and solutions.
