Axiomatic Foundations of Thermostatics
  A realistic and objective axiomatic formulation of Thermostatics for composite systems is presented. The main feature of our axiomatics is that it is free of empirical definitions. In particular, the basic concepts of the theory, such as those of entropy, heat and temperature, are characterized only by the axiomatic basis and the theorems derived from it. We also show that the concept of (quasi)static process does not belong to the body of Thermostatics.
