Product Description: This volume covers the rapidly developing field of complexity studies with the underlying theme that complexity is to be found everywhere. The volume discusses many chemical applications and offers a comprehensive coverage of complexity and the ways in which it may be measured, complexity indices, complexity measures based on Shannon's information theory, and thermodynamic complexity...read more

Product Description: Topology is becoming increasingly important in chemistry because of its rapidly growing number of applications. Here, its many uses are reviewed and the authors anticipate what future developments might bring. This work shows how significant new insights can be gained by representing molecular species as topological structures known as topographs...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)
