Illustrated Coated Boards. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. "There are some excellent texts which deal with particular areas of the chemistry of non-metal rings, cages, and clusters in great depth but, with one or two exceptions (e.g. boron hydride chemistry) there are no useful introductions to this topic. This observation was brought home to me when, after one of my (typically rambling) undergraduate lectures, a student asked me to recommend a good book. Unfortunately, I could not do so. I have no misconceptions that this book will totally solve the problem. My main goal is to introduce the area to a wide audience which appears to be currently almost unaware of the existence of many of the compounds, or has difficulty because 'there are so many different shapes and structures.' This book is arranged along lines intended to to accentuate the structural similarities in a rather diverse area."
