Josiah Willard Gibbs Knihy
Josiah Willard Gibbs bol americký vedec, ktorého teoretické práce zásadne premenili fyzikálnu chémiu na rigoróznu deduktívnu vedu. Spolu s ďalšími priekopníkmi vytvoril štatistickú mechaniku, pričom termodynamické zákony vysvetlil ako dôsledky štatistických vlastností veľkých súborov častíc. Gibbs vynašiel moderný vektorový počet a jeho práce v oblasti fyzikálnej optiky mali značný dopad. Napriek svojmu tichému životu v relatívnej izolácii sa stal jedným z najskorších amerických vedcov s medzinárodnou reputáciou, ktorého teoretické objavy sa neskôr ukázali ako nesmierne cenné pre priemyselnú chémiu.
