"This treatise is a pedogogically oriented collection of 22 chapters chosen to comprehensively present the quantum mechanics of electronic phenomena in molecules. It is an excellent effort to match increases in the physical understanding of chemistry with the astonishing advances in digital computer power and accessibility ... The two-volume set is a necessary addition to chemistry libraries or research group holdings." Leland C Allen J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1996
