Description
Molecular Modelling for Beginners by Alan Hinchliffe is an accessible introduction to the fundamentals of modelling and computational chemistry. This book covers essential topics such as molecular mechanics, Monte Carlo methods, and molecular dynamics, with a dedicated chapter on quantitative structure-activity relationships and discovery chemistry. The text is supported by a comprehensive website featuring background information, full-colour illustrations, questions and answers, Visual Basic packages, and many realistic examples with solutions. A hands-on approach is taken, using state-of-the-art software packages G03/W and/or Hyperchem, Gaussian .gjf files, and sample outputs. This revised edition of Molecular Modelling for Beginners appeals to the modern student with a focus on presentation and emphasis.
