Atkins' Physical Chemistry , 8th revised edition

Quantum mechanics accounts for the behaviour of atoms and molecules. It therefore accounts for the properties of all matter and underlies both technologically advanced materials and the processes that take place within living organisms. Molecular Quantum Mechanics leads us through this absorbing yet challenging subject, exploring the fundamental physical principles that explain how all matter behaves. With the clarity of exposition and extensive learning features that have established the book as a leading text in the field, Molecular Quantum Mechanics takes us from the foundations of quantum mechanics, through quantum models of atomic and molecular electronic structure, and on to discussions of spectroscopy, the electric and magnetic properties of molecules, and the events that take place when molecules react during collisions. New to this Edition : New Mathematical background sections provide extended accounts of the subject's key mathematical concepts ; New end-of-chapter Exercises complement the Problems to help you put your learning into practice ; An increase in the use of Brief illustrations, and a completely revised artwork programme, make the book a more effective learning resource than ever before ; Appendices redistributed as Further information sections at the ends of chapters, to bring these additional supportive materials close to the chapters to which they most closely relate ; Heavily rewritten chapter on computational chemistry captures the latest advances in this field in a uniquely accessible manner.

The exceptional quality of previous editions has been built upon to make the tenth edition of Atkins' Physical Chemistry even more closely suited to the needs of both students and lecturers. The text has been enhanced with additional learning features and maths support, and has been radically restructured into short focussed topics. An innovative use of pedagogy is combined with rigorous but accessible coverage of the subject to ensure Atkins' Physical Chemistry tenth edition remains the textbook of choice for studying physical chemistry. New to this edition : significant reorganization of the material within each chapter into discrete 'topics' makes the text more readable for students and more flexible for instructors ; expanded maths support includes new 'Chemist's toolkits' which provide students with succinct reminders of mathematical concepts and techniques ; three questions at the beginning of each topic engage and focus the attention of the reader : 'Why do you need to know this material ?', 'What is the key idea ?', and 'What do you need to know already ?' ; New checklists of key concepts at the end of each topic reinforce the main take-home messages in each section.

CHIMIE PHYSIQUE. - Tome 2

From award-nominated and critically-acclaimed author Peter Atkins, screenwriter of Hellraiser II-IV and Wishmaster, comes a new collection of exquisitely rendered nightmares. What is that unearthly howling coming from a small suburban house in Liverpool? Why would a headless corpse in a Manhattan penthouse be sitting so calmly with its legs crossed? What is it about that unusual trinket bought at an estate sale that has an agent of a covert government department so interested?The answers to these and many other unsettling questions await you within the pages of the extraordinary All Our Hearts Are Ghosts..."The writing is contemporary and hip, yet beautifully lyrical." - Simon Marshall-Jones, This Is Horror"The excellent-and enviably original-Peter Atkins." - Ramsey Campbell"An uncanny ability to mix unflinching violence with poetic melancholy." - John Palisano, President of the Horror Writers Association"One of the best writers of horror and dark fantasy to come along inthe last twenty years ... a great stylist with a truly original voice." - Ian Hunter, The British Fantasy Society Book Review"Charming, sly, and seriously scary" - Glen Hirshberg
