Orbitals, Terms and States

This highly regarded text offers a fine introduction to quantum chemistry, especially for students with a limited mathematical background, and provides an excellent supplement to any chemistry text. Geared toward undergraduates in chemistry and related fields, it covers atomic and molecular spectroscopy, quantum mechanics, and bonding theory, among other topics. Mathematical explanations are presented as simply as possible, and difficult subjects are given full explanations. AUTHOR: Dr. Malcolm Gerloch is an Emeritus Fellow of Trinity Hall, Cambridge. He is also the co-author (with Edwin C. Constable) of Transition Metal Chemistry: The Valence Shell in d-Block Chemistry.
