"Computational Chemistry: Introduction to the Theory and Applications of Molecular and Quantum Mechanics" is an invaluable tool for teaching and researchers alike. The book provides an overview of the field, explains the basic underlying theory at a meaningful level that is not beyond beginners, and it gives numerous comparisons of different methods with one another and with experiment. The following concepts are illustrated and their possibilities and limitations are given:
- potential energy surfaces; - simple and extended Hueckel methods; - ab initio, AM1 and related semiempirical methods; - density functional theory (DFT).
Topics are placed in a historical context, adding interest to them and removing much of their apparently arbitrary aspect. The large number of references, to all significant topics mentioned, should make this book useful not only to undergraduates but also to graduate students and academic and industrial researchers.
From the reviews of the second edition:
"The purpose of this volume . is to teach the basic concepts and methods of computational chemistry. . Lewars . has provided programs and sufficient information on background and theory for advanced students and scientists to use the programs effectively. . Literature references are clear, extensive, appropriate, and current, making the volume an excellent research source. . changes and additions in this edition make it a superior textbook and resource for libraries supporting chemistry and physics programs. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals/practitioners." (D. A. Johnson, Choice, Vol. 48 (10), June, 2011)
"There are many textbooks and monographs devoted to computational chemistry but . Lewars' is unique. In addition to the principles of computational chemistry, there is a real attempt to provide an insight into the 'nuts and bolts' of how various models work. . will appeal to the fledgling computational chemistry PhD student, the lecturer designing a course, and to the experienced researcher who wishes to do their own calculations and wants to understand more about what is going on inside the 'black box'." (Rob Deeth, Chemistry World, October, 2011)
"This text offers a vast and insightful overview for beginner and expert . . the book is concise and easy to understand, with example solutions and diagrams used effectively to support explanations. The author does an outstanding job of balancing theoretical background with practical application to keep the text engaging and relevant. . This is an excellent introduction and reference book for anyone with an interest in the subject." (The Times Higher Education, November, 2011)
Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
