Introduction

The concept of Statistical Mechanics is very difficult. It is advisable that before starting directly from book please watch my lectures. If the course on Statistical Mechanics is already started in your institute, then follow the class notes. If the course is not started yet or you are not able to follow whatever done in  the class then watch my video lectures.

Comments on Reference Books

Pathria

Pathria Solutions I have provided the solution manual of the Pathria book . But It doesn’t contain the solution of all the solutions. Whatever solutions is provided in the manual are not clearly written. So, I would recommend you to follow my solutions.
