Circular dichroism has become the preferred chiroptical technique for structure determination of optically active natural and synthetic compounds and biopolymers. This monograph describes the state-of-the-art of circular dichroism, arguing that it is an extremely powerful but under-utilized technique. The text should interest research workers and graduate students in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry, biochemistry and biophysics.
