According to the authors; When a book enters its fifth edition you might expect a certain maturity and a settling down into a comfortable middle if not old age.
We hope you will identify the former but not the latter. We learn enormously from each new edition and like to refresh the exposition and introduce new ideas at every opportunity. We hope that you will see maturity certainly but also a new vibrancy in this edition.
The structure of the book remains much the same as in the fourth edition, but with a small reorganization of chapters, such as the reversal of the order of the groups of chapters on Materials. We have also brought together under various umbrella titles the related chapters to give a greater sense of cohesion.
Thus there is a Chemical Equilibrium family, a Chemical Kinetics family, a Quantum Chemistry family, a Materials family, and a Spectroscopy family. Throughout the text we have had in mind one principal objective: to ensure that the coverage is appropriate to a single compact physical chemistry course.
As a result, we have eliminated some material but (with our eyes alert to the dangers of expanding the text unduly) have strengthened the discussion of a wide range of topics.
About the authors:
Peter Atkinsis a fellow of Lincoln College in the University of Oxfordand the author of more than sixty books for students and a general audi-ence. His texts are market leaders around the globe. A frequent lecturer in the United States and throughout the world, he has held visiting pro-fessorships in France, Israel, Japan, China, and New Zealand.
He was the founding chairman of the Committee on Chemistry Education of theInternational Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry and was a member ofIUPAC’s Physical and Biophysical Chemistry Division.
Julio de Paulais Professor of Chemistry and Dean of the College of Arts& Sciences at Lewis & Clark College. A native of Brazil, Professor de Paulareceived a B.A. degree in chemistry from Rutgers, The State University ofNew Jersey, and a Ph.D. in biophysical chemistry from Yale University.
His research activities encompass the areas of molecular spectroscopy, biophysical chemistry, and nanoscience. He has taught courses in generalchemistry, physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry, instrumental analy-sis, and writing.
