Synopsis

The Reviews in Computational Chemistry series brings together leading authorities in the field. The chapters in this book series are written to teach the newcomer and update the expert. Topics include computational chemistry, molecular modeling, computer-assisted molecular design (CAMD), quantum chemistry, molecular mechanics and dynamics, and quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR).

• Detailed author and subject indices on each volume help the reader to quickly discover particular topics.
• The chapters are approached in a tutorial manner and written in a non-mathematical style allowing students and researchers to access computational methods outside their immediate area of expertise.

About this title

From the Publisher

Computational chemistry is increasingly used in conjunction with organic, inorganic, medicinal, biological, physical, and analytical chemistry, biotechnology, materials science, and chemical physics. This ten volume set is essential in keeping those individuals involved in these fields abreast of recent developments in computational chemistry.

From the Back Cover

This volume, like those prior to it, features chapters by experts in various fields of computational chemistry. Volume 19 is centered on the theme of macroscopic modeling, and discusses topics such as: Monte Carlo simulation techniques, computing hydrophobicity, classical trajectory simulations within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, and the theory behind the widely used Poisson-Boltzmann equation.

FROM REVIEWS OF THE SERIES

"Reviews in Computational Chemistry remains the most valuable reference to methods and techniques in computational chemistry."
–JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR GRAPHICS AND MODELLING

"One cannot generally do better than to try to find an appropriate article in the highly successful Reviews in Computational Chemistry. The basic philosophy of the editors seems to be to help the authors produce chapters that are complete, accurate, clear, and accessible to experimentalists (in particular) and other nonspecialists (in general)."
–JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY
