• Most people remember chemistry from their schooldays as a subject that was largely incomprehensible, fact-rich but understanding-poor, smelly, and so far removed from the real world of events and pleasures that there seemed little point, except for the most introverted, in coming to terms with its grubby concepts, spells, recipes, and rules. Peter Atkins wants to change all that. In What is Chemistry? he encourages us to look at chemistry anew, through a chemist’s eyes, to understand its central concepts and to see how it contributes not only towards our material comfort, but also to human culture.

• Fostering an intuitive understanding of chemistry, Physical Chemistry: Quantum Chemistry and Molecular Interactions presents the structure and unity of the theoretical framework of modern chemistry in a progression from the single atom to the bulk limit. Employing an engaging and somewhat informal tone, this new text delivers a superior presentation of rigorous mathematical derivations, thermodynamics, and quantum theory and mechanics in a manner that is accessible and applicable to diverse readers. –Provided by publisher.
