CHAPTER 4 – The Thermodynamics of Irreversible Processes
TL;DR: The theory of transformations is a description of a particular class of irreversible processes and may appropriately be described as kinetic as discussed by the authors, which is a connection between the microscopic properties of the systems of the assembly and the macroscopic (measurable) properties is made by statistical mechanics.
