"Symmetry in Chemistry" carefully introduces this subject by combining symmetry with spectroscopy in a clear and accessible manner. Beginning with an introduction to symmetry in nature and chemistry, the text goes on to examine point groups, the interaction of light with molecules, electronic spectra of transition metal complexes with a final chapter on symmetry and the spectra of complexes. Each chapter introduces the subject gradually and ends with a series of self-test questions to enhance student understanding. This text fills a niche in the market combining the applications of the subject with the necessary theory in a clear and accessible manner.
