Spectroscopic Methods in Bioinorganic Chemistry (Acs Symposium Series)

"Contains papers from an April 1997 symposium, held in San Francisco, California, in sections on recent advances in ground-state and excited-state methods, electron transfer, cluster interactions, active site geometric and electronic structures, and intermediates. Early papers discuss new directions in different methods of bioorganic spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and protein crystallography, and later papers examine both detailed application of specific spectroscopic methods and work applying a range of methods."--SciTech Book News "Each of the 25 chapters is a well-referenced, crisp account of recent developments in the use of spectroscopy to study electronic, structural, and dynamic chemical phenomena in bioinorganic systems. The chapters are clearly written, and each gives a brief but excellent introduction of the theory of the relevant spectroscopic technique(s) as well as background information on the subject matter. . . .This book is highly recommended as essential reading for researchers in the area of inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry as well as biochemistry and biology. it is excellent reading material for those interested in spectroscopic methods in general and is a good source book for special topic courses for graduate students headed into research in inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry." -- Journal of the American Chemistry Society "Contains papers from an April 1997 symposium, held in San Francisco, California, in sections on recent advances in ground-state and excited-state methods, electron transfer, cluster interactions, active site geometric and electronic structures, and intermediates.
