Description

Intended for beginning graduate and advanced undergraduate courses in Quantum Chemistry. Integrating many new computer-oriented examples and problems throughout, this best-selling, easy-to-understand modern introduction to quantum chemistry covers quantum mechanics, atomic structure, and molecular electronic structure. Practical for students in all branches of chemistry, it offers a solid understanding of quantum mechanics and clearly demonstrates the usefulness and limitations of current quantum-mechanical methods for the calculation of molecular properties.
