وصف الكتاب | The best way to understand chemical bonding may be to take a view appropriate to each individual system a view which may be quite different for various systems sometimes two very different views are appropriate for the same system and then the combination may even give the parameters needed to estimate the bonding energy by hand density functional theory on the other hand generally tries to take one view as applicable to all systems and proceeds computationallyin contrast to the authors two previous wellknown textbooks electronic structure and the properties of solids 1989 and elementary electronic structure 1999 in this book he tries to distill the essence of the representation of electronic structure in a much briefer description it is shortened by focusing primarily on the bonding energies the energy gained in assembling atoms as a molecule or a solid or as a solid with a surface a central point is that the same description of the electronic structure which gives this cohesion can also be used to understand all of the other properties though those other properties are not emphasized here the effort is characterized by the title which combines the modern word theory with the ancient effort of alchemy to make sense of the material world |
