The theory of intermolecular forces - Stone, A. J. , (Anthony J.) (Oxford University Press, 2013)
Previous ed.: Oxford: Clarendon, 1996
Includes bibliographical references
Improved experimental and computational methods mean that more detailed measurements are available in the study of intermolecular forces. This book describes the advanced mathematical techniques required to cope with this improvement
