Third Edition
By
John Lowe, The Pennsylvania State University
Kirk Peterson, Washington State University
Description
Lowe's new edition assumes little mathematical or physical sophistication and emphasizes an understanding of the techniques and results
of quantum chemistry. It can serve as a primary text in quantum chemistry courses, and enables students and researchers to comprehend
the current literature. This third edition has been thoroughly updated and includes numerous new exercises to facilitate self-study and
solutions to selected exercises.
Audience
Upper-level undergraduate and first-year graduate chemistry students taking quantum chemistry, physical chemists, and organic and inorganic chemists
