/sci/ - Science & Math

Hey /sci/, next year I'm taking my first serious

Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics course at my uni. I don't know much about this subject, when I studied the basics in a general physics course I didn't give it a lot of thought, now I'm regretting doing so.

Which books should I use to begin with the very basics of this subject? What math topics should I master or at least feel comfortable with, to do okay on this course? I know some statistics and probability but again, is not too much. Any help will be appreciated.

>mfw people are seriously trying to argue that humans have not significantly impacted climate change ITT

This thread has some of the most retarded reasoning I've ever seen.

I leave for six months and when I come back, /sci/ is still replying to troll threads.

>OP ignoring that the stories in the bible about violence were either about fighting a tyrant, telling someone when you get raped, or generally just explaining all the situations of said violence, and gives advice to do about it.

were arguin over on /v/

would you drown in lava before burning to death or what?

What is the most important thing every human being should know in order to:

1. think reasonably

2. contribute to humanity

3.enjoy their life

I think every human being should learn about quantum chromodynamics.
