Thermal Radiation Heat Transfer, Volume I: The Blackbody, Electromagnetic Theory, and Material Properties

The book shows signs of wear typical for its age. The cover has some discoloration and edge wear, particularly on the spine. There is a handwritten inscription on the cover, adding a unique personal touch. The binding remains intact, though the absence of a dust jacket suggests it may not have originally included one.
