Atkins' Physical Chemistry
Résumé
In this major revision, the world's leading textbook of physical chemistry has maintained its tradition of being accessible but authoritative, and has been brought completely up to date. Peter Atkins has been joined for the first time by a coauthor, Julio de Paula, and both authors have revised every chapter, introducing many innovations: there are new or rewritten chapters on the solid state, on molecular interactions, macromolecules, and electron transfer; almost every chapter has at least one Box showing the relevance of the material to modern chemistry; and all the chapters now conclude with a checklist which includes definitions and key equations. Atkins and de Paula have paid special attention to the presentation of mathematical derivations and to the physical interpretation of equations, and they have also ensured that the text is highly modular, so that it can be used in different sequences, beginning either with atoms or with thermodynamics. The art program has been redrawn and extended, new Discussion Questions have been added, and the Further Information sections have been recast to provide the necessary background in mathematics and physics. The text is supported by a companion web site offering full media support.

À propos des auteurs
Peter Atkins is professor of chemistry at the University of Oxford and fellow of Lincoln College, where he is tutor in physical chemistry. After graduating from the University of Leicester, he received a Harkness Fellowship from the Commonwealth Fund, which he spent at the University of California, Los Angeles, and then took up his current position at Oxford in 1965. He was awarded the Meldola Medal by the Royal Society of Chemistry in 1969 and was Nyholm Lecturer in 1999. He sits on the Physical Chemistry Division of the IUPAC and is chairman of IUPAC's Committee for Chemical Education.
Julio de Paula is professor of chemistry at Haverford College, Pennsylvania, where he teaches general chemistry, physical chemistry, and biophysical chemistry, and conducts research in photochemistry and photobiology. After obtaining a doctorate in chemistry from Yale University, he was a National Institutes of Health Postdoctoral Fellow at Michigan State University, and then took up his current position at Haverford in 1989. He was awarded a Henry Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award in 1998.
