Solution manual for Statistical Mechanics by Pathria

In summary, the individual is asking for help in finding a solution manual for the book "Statistical Mechanics" by Pathria. They have checked Amazon and the publisher, but have not been able to find it. Other forum members suggest trying to work through the problems and asking for help if needed, as solution manuals are not common in the real world of science and engineering. Some individuals have shared links to websites where the manual can be downloaded for a fee, but the original person is looking for a free option. Eventually, someone was able to find the manual and shared it with the group.

I checked Amazon and the publisher (now Elsevier), and they do not list a solutions manual.

It would seem best if you try to work through the problems and PFers will help if you get stuck.

In the real world of science and engineering - there are no solution manuals.
