Molecular Reaction Dynamics
Molecular Reaction Dynamics is a brand new version of the text by Levine and
Bernstein. The book delivers an updated treatment of this fundamental topic.
An appreciation of how chemical reactions occur and their control is essential
to chemists and to those in interdisciplinary fields such as materials and
nanoscience, drug design, and astrochemistry. The first half of the book
describes experimental techniques for initiating and probing reaction dynamics
and the essential insights gained. The second part explores key areas including
photoselective chemistry, stereochemistry, chemical reactions in real time, and
chemical reaction dynamics in solutions and interfaces. Typical of the new
challenges are molecular machines, enzyme action, and molecular control. With
problem sets included, this book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and
graduate students studying chemical reaction dynamics, as well as physical
chemistry, biophysics, and materials science.
R L is Max Born Professor of Natural Philosophy at the
Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at
the University of California, Los Angeles. He is active in the area of chemical
reaction dynamics and his published scientific work has earnt the recognition of
the Israel Prize and the Wolf Prize. He is a member of the Israel National
Academy of Sciences and a foreign member of the National Academy of
Sciences of the United States and of Academiae Europaeae.
