520 ## - ABSTRACT
Summary, etc. Introduction to Non-Equilibrium Physical Chemistry: Towards Complexity and Non-Linear Science by R. P. Rastogi provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles governing physical and chemical systems that operate far from thermodynamic equilibrium. The book explores how matter and energy interact in dynamic systems, emphasizing processes that cannot be adequately explained by classical equilibrium thermodynamics.<br/><br/>The text examines key concepts such as irreversible thermodynamics, transport phenomena, chemical kinetics, self-organization, chaos, bifurcation theory, and non-linear dynamics. It demonstrates how complex patterns and structures emerge spontaneously in physical, chemical, and biological systems through non-equilibrium processes. Special attention is given to the role of fluctuations, instabilities, and feedback mechanisms in the evolution of complex systems.<br/><br/>By integrating traditional physical chemistry with modern complexity science, the book highlights the interdisciplinary nature of non-equilibrium phenomena and their applications in fields ranging from chemistry and physics to biology and environmental science. It serves as an important resource for students and researchers seeking to understand the behavior of real-world systems where change, evolution, and dynamic interactions dominate.<br/><br/>Keywords: Non-equilibrium thermodynamics, complexity, non-linear science, chemical kinetics, self-organization, chaos theory, irreversible processes, bifurcation, transport phenomena, dynamic systems.
