<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Die Symmetrie der Moleküle gehört zu den Grundpfeilern der modernen Chemie. Viele Studenten haben Schwierigkeiten mit der Mathematik, die den Symmetriebetrachtungen zugrunde liegt - der Gruppentheorie. Bei der Lösung dieser Probleme hilft der hier verfolgte Ansatz des programmierten Lernens: Sorgfältig erarbeitete, geschickt kommentierte Übungen führen Schritt für Schritt von Symmetrieelement und Charaktertafel bis zur Berechnung von Molekülschwingungen. Besonders geeignet für das gezielte Selbststudium!

Molecular Symmetry and Group Theory is based around a series of programmes that help students learn at their own pace and enable them to understand the subject fully. Readers are taken through a series of carefully constructed exercises, designed to simplify the mathematics and give them a full understanding of how this relates to the chemistry. The second edition has been revised and expanded and includes a new chapter on the projection operator method. This is used to calculate the form of the normal modes of vibration of a molecule and the normalised wave functions of hybrid orbitals or molecular orbitals.<br /> Features: <br /> * A concise, gentle introduction to symmetry and group theory<br /> * Takes a programmed learning approach<br /> * New material on projection operators, and the calculation of normal modes of vibration and normalised wave functions of orbitals.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>the best introduction to the subject, especially for those whose mathematics is weak.
