About the Authors
  • Ranging from the physics of elementary particles to the structure of viruses, the subject matter of this book stresses the importance of optical activity and chirality in modern science and will be of interest to a wide range of scientists. Using classical and quantum methods with a strong emphasis on symmetry principles, the volume develops the theory of varied optical activity and related phenomena from the perspective of molecular scattering of polarized light. First Edition Hb (1983): 0-521-24602-4

    • Unified treatment of optical activity and related phenomena from the viewpoint of molecular scattering of polarised light
    • Detailed treatment of infrared and Raman vibrational optical activity
    • Strong emphasis on symmetry principles
