Led in his travels by the classical poet Virgil

The prophet Almustafa is leaving the city of Orphalese to return to his native island

the story concerns the clash of older aristocrats with the new democratic intelligentsia

Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics Albert DorneIlya Prigogine won the 1977 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his contributions to non equilibrium thermodynamics. This groundbreaking 1962 monograph, written for researchers and graduate students in this field, was his first book length contribution to this subject. Suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in physics and chemistry, the treatment begins with examinations of the Liouville equation, anharmonic solids, and Brownian motion.
