Description
This excerpt from a review of a book, "Computer Chemistry: 1989 Crc Press Revivals" describes the book's contents and how it can be used to help chemists. The book covers a variety of topics related to computer chemistry, including theoretical framework and practical application, synthesis design systems, structure elucidation systems, molecular modelling systems, and calculation of physico-chemical parameters.
Computer Chemistry illustrates the methods and philosophies of how a computer can be instructed to "understand" chemical facts, formulas and rules. It focuses on discussions of all of the major sections in both theoretical framework and practical application through examples. It includes the Synthesis Design Systems for the simulation of chemical reactions, the Structure Elucidation Systems for the interpretation of spectral data, the Molecular Modelling Systems for the visualization of chemical structures and the calculation of physico-chemical parameters.
