This book, suitable for undergraduates in chemistry, describes atomic orbitals in detail and is illustrated by three-dimensional plots of the mathematical functions (no artists' impressions). It then extends the key fundamental quantum properties to many-electron atoms, linear combinations of atomic orbitals, simple molecules, delocalised systems, atomic spectroscopy and paramagnetism.
