Summary: "Heat is not just a temperature. Heat refers to energy transferred from one body to another that is at a lower temperature.

Detailed diagrams help illustrate such concepts as specific heat capacity and latent heat. Clear text explains the difference between conduction, convection, and radiation, as well as emitters, absorbers, and more"--Amazon.
