Praised for its appealing writing style and clear pedagogy, Lowe's Quantum Chemistry is now available in its Second Edition as a text for senior undergraduate- and graduate-level chemistry students. The book assumes little mathematical or physical sophistication and emphasizes an understanding of the techniques and results of quantum chemistry, thus enabling students to comprehend much of the current chemical literature in which quantum chemical methods or concepts are used as tools. The book begins with a six-chapter introduction of standard one-dimensional systems, the hydrogen atom, many-electron atoms, and principles of quantum mechanics. It then provides thorough treatments of variation and perturbation methods, group theory, ab initio theory, Huckel and extended Huckel methods, qualitative MO theory, and MO theory of periodic systems. Chapters are completed with exercises to facilitate self-study. Solutions to selected exercises are included. - Assumes little mathematical or physical sophistication - Emphasizes understanding of the techniques and results of quantum chemistry - Includes improved coverage of time-dependent phenomena, term symbols, and molecular rotation and vibration - Provides a new chapter on molecular orbital theory of periodic systems - Features new exercise sets with solutions - Includes a helpful new appendix that compiles angular momentum rules from operator algebra

Quantum Chemistry Student Edition

By: John Lowe

Quantum Chemistry: Student Edition emphasizes the ground state molecular orbital theory of molecules. This book contains 14 chapters that also cover some aspects of quantum mechanics theory. The opening chapters deal with some simple, but important, particle systems, allowing the introduction of many basic concepts and definitions of classical physics. The subsequent chapters consider the simple harmonic oscillator, the hydrogenlike ion, and many-electron atoms. Considerable chapters are devoted to the development of methods for performing linear variational calculations. These methods require solving a determinantal equation for its roots, and then solving a set of simultaneous homogeneous equations for coefficients. The closing chapters explore the concept and application of group theory and the qualitative molecular orbital theory. This book is of great value to organic, inorganic, and physical chemists, as well as to undergraduate or graduate chemistry students.

The End of Organized Capitalism

By: Scott Lash,John Urry

In this thought-provoking new book, Anthony Smith analyses key debates between historians and social scientists on the role of nations and nationalism in history. In a wide-ranging analysis of the work of historians, sociologists, political scientists and others, he argues that there are three key issues which have shaped debates in this field: first, the nature and origin of nations and nationalism; second, the antiquity or modernity of nations and nationalism; and third, the role of nations and nationalism in historical, and especially recent, social change. Anthony Smith provides an incisive critique of the debate between modernists, perennialists and primordialists over the origins, development and contemporary significance of nations and nationalism. Drawing on a wide range of examples from antiquity and the medieval epoch, as well as the modern world, he develops a distinctive ethnosymbolic account of nations and nationalism. This important book by one of the world’s leading authorities on nationalism and ethnicity will be of particular interest to students and scholars in history, sociology and politics.
