| Kurzbeschreibung
Any successful theory of bonding in chemistry should explain in the easiest way why atoms are bonded in molecules or not, the structure and shape of molecules in space and how molecules interact in long range. This readable little book assists students in understanding, in a nonmathematical way, the essentials of the different bonds occurring in chemistry. A short, self-contained, introduction presents the essential elements of the variation approach. A quantitative electrostatic approach is presented at its simplest pictorial level. A list of alphabetically ordered references, author and subject indices complete the book.
