Chemical Sciences in the 20th Century: Bridging Boundaries, edited by Carsten Reinhardt with a foreword by Roald Hoffmann, is a scholarly exploration of the remarkable growth and diversification of chemistry during the last century. Drawing on case studies and broad surveys, the book highlights revolutionary developments across fields such as organic, theoretical, nuclear, cosmochemical, solid-…
The Handbook of Industrial Chemistry: Organic Chemicals provides a comprehensive reference for the production and processing of non-petroleum-based organic chemicals. It covers major industrial sectors such as soaps, detergents, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, and polymers. Emphasizing practical engineering approaches, the book integrates safety, environmental management, and chemical pro…
This book provides an introduction to the principles of chemical bonding and molecular structure with a strong emphasis on molecular orbital theory and group theory. Written for upper-level undergraduate and graduate chemistry students, it covers topics such as bonding in polyatomic molecules, symmetry in molecules, and coordination compounds. The authors blend theoretical foundations with mode…
Chemistry: Science of Change by David W. Oxtoby, H. P. Gillis, and Alan Campion is a rigorous introductory textbook that emphasizes chemistry as an experimental and theoretical science. Aimed at students with a strong foundation in math and basic chemistry, it begins with observable macroscopic phenomena—such as thermodynamics and chemical reactions—and gradually builds toward a deep unders…
A modern, mathematically grounded introduction to kinetics and molecular reaction dynamics, suitable for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students. It addresses fundamental rate theories (collision theory, TST), transport properties, surface and photochemical reactions, and molecular reaction dynamics. The Dover edition includes errata and solutions to selected problems.
