Abstract

A classification representing some main branches of non-equilibrium thermodynamics is discussed. Differences and similarities of these selected branches are explained. Starting out with basic concepts of phenomenological thermodynamics, more developed theories with different backgrounds contributing to contemporary thermodynamics are considered. Because of its size, this field cannot be presented completely without any omissions.
