The series is designed to help the chemistry community keep current with the many new developments in computational techniques. The writing style is refreshingly pedagogical and non-mathematical, allowing students and researchers access to computational methods outside their immediate area of expertise.Reviews in Computational ChemistryChemistryData processingChemistryMathematicsChemistryData processing.ChemistryMathematics.542.85542/.8Lipkowitz Kenny B855564Boyd Donald B855565MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830966503321Reviews in computational chemistry1910004UNINA
