\(\oint \frac{dQ_{\text{rev}}}{T} = -\Delta S\ \)
I was going through some of the books I've collected over the years, it's funny how easy it is to collect books when there doesn't seem to be enough time in the day to read them. It's been a while, and I've only recently been going back to some fundamentals, but here are some I've dusted off.
Çengel and Boles is a bit nostalgic. Although I recommend something like the 10th edition nowadays.
