As I’ve shared here, here, and here, I’m seeking to write a textbook that connects the micro-world of moving and interacting atoms to the macro-world of thermodynamic phenomena and the classical equations used to describe them. Two challenges initially confronted me in this effort: 1) I have many unanswered questions regarding the micro-to-macro connections, and 2) I didn’t know which internet publishing platform to use for my book. I think I’ve resolved both.

I’ve decided to remain with this website that I originally built using WordPress, and upgrade it with some nice plug-ins to the point where I can address both (1) and (2).

Regarding (1), I’m going to list all of my unanswered questions and then create individual pages in which I share where I’m at with each. I encourage you to help me in those many instances where I’m stuck in my thinking. Please.

Regarding (2), I will publish each chapter as I complete it. At 66 years of age (and counting), I don’t want to wait another 20 years until I’m done with the book and ready to publish.

You’ll eventually see WIP sections on my website dedicated to both (1) and (2). Naturally, the two will be linked, as I’ll need to address (1) in order to complete (2).

Thank you for your understanding.
