Editorial Reviews
Review
"...could be read cover to cover, providing...important insights...could serve as an excellent reference volume...both researchers and students would find it valuable.... I would consider it essential to have on the shelf..." (Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 123, No. 41, 2001)

"...offers a research guide rather than a primary text...students might find some of the material useful...explains to chemists how to use computational techniques to address real-world research problems." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 25, No. 4, December 2001)

"If you're looking for an aggregation of what's out there, and a starting point for further reading or research, then this book does a pretty good job." (Chemweb - Alchemist, 11 February 2002)

Book Description
A practical, easily accessible guide for bench-top chemists, this book focuses on accurately applying computational chemistry techniques to everyday chemistry problems. Provides nonmathematical explanations of advanced topics in computational chemistry.

• Focuses on when and how to apply different computational techniques.
• Addresses computational chemistry connections to biochemical systems and polymers.
• Provides a prioritized list of methods for attacking difficult computational chemistry problems, and compares advantages and disadvantages of various approximation techniques.
• Describes how the choice of methods of software affects requirements for computer memory and processing time.
