Kevin, I would recommend my thermodynamics text books from college but they
now have that old book smell, and will likely crumble in my hands should I
attempt to open them.  Bookworms have lived there long enought that genetic
drift has occurred to such an extent that they may have evolved into
distinct species.  Fortunately there are websites that can surely instruct
one on how that calculation goes.
