I'm a professor, and I use this book for both: graduate and ungraduate courses, unfortunatelly I have problems for submit as a teacher in the book page, also in students page, aparently this last was designed just for the us students. Is a pity.

Perfect...

Great book...does a good job of deriving things from first principles. Excellent reference, everything is well-organized. One minor complaint: I wish that the section on analyzing phase diagrams with the lever rule came with a few more examples and better explanations. For that, if I could, I would dock a quarter of a star.
