This textbook covers the basics necessary for understanding the statistical theory of unimolecular reactions in its original and variational, phase-space and angular momentum-conserved incarnations. Because the emphasis is on "why" rather than "how to", there are many problems and answers to explore further. The book is targeted at graduate and advanced undergraduate students studying chemical dynamics, chemical kinetics and theoretical chemistry.
