Abstract: | In the theoretical interpretation of the kinetics of first-order phase transitions, thermodynamic concepts are widely employed
that were developed long ago by Gibbs and van der Waals. However, the results of such analysis are partly unsatisfactory and
internally contradictory. By generalizing Gibbs’ approach, the existing deficiencies and internal contradictions of these
two well-established theories can be removed and a new generally applicable tool for the interpretation of these processes
can be developed. The basic ideas of the generalized Gibbs approach and a variety of consequences obtained on its basis with
respect to the understanding of the general features of the kinetics of first-order phase transitions are outlined.
Dedicated to the memory of Vladimir P. Skripov.
