By understanding the geometric structure of a molecule, much can be learned about its electronic structure and bonding. This text emphasizes the concepts and applications of group theory, rather than the complex mathematics which surround this topic. The edition has been updated to include a new chapter on the solid state, along with more questions and answers.
In this text, Dr. Kettle presents the most lucent introduction available for students wishing to attain an understanding of Group Theory for chemical applications. The text is not overly mathematical in its presentation, setting it apart from the numerous other texts available on this subject. After having read this text, a student is amply able to understand discussions of group theory with respect to spectroscopy or otherwise.
