5.0 out of 5 stars Great little read, November 16, 2011
This review is from: Investigations on the Theory of the Brownian Movement (Dover Books on Physics) (Paperback)
This was required reading for my Masters Thesis defense. Neat little book. I found that in spite of us having nanotechnology, that most of the current laws of thermodynamics are still applicable and not violated in spite of what some researchers may claim. This book helped prove and reinforce those findings.
