Description
This book is intended as an easy to read supplement to the often brief descriptions of hydrogen bonding found in most undergraduate chemistry and molecular biology textbooks. It describes and discusses current ideas concerning hydrogen bonds ranging from the very strong to the very weak, with introductions to the experimental and theoretical methods involved.
Reviews / Votes
It is both pleasure and privilege to be able to review this book written by an eminent carbohydrate crystallographer who has spent his lifetime at the University of Pittsburgh decoding the secrets of hydrogen bonds, especially in the solid state...The details in the book are the greatest up-to-date resource on hydrogen bonds in molecules having a wide range of chemistry and complexity. Although Jeffrey considers it a supplement to undergraduate textbooks, I would also strongly recommend An Introduction to Hydrogen Bonding to all graduate students and research scientists pursuing active research in structural science./Rengaswami Chandrasekaran Purdue University/Carbohydrate Research 312 1998.More details
