| Summary: | Identified not as a second edition but as a revised first edition (the original first edition was published in 1988), this first or second year graduate-level textbook presents a thorough introduction to the relationships among quantum mechanical formulations, experimentally determinable quantities obtained via spectroscopic methods, and physical parameters related to the structure of molecular systems. It also provides a detailed discussion of the use of matrix mechanics as it applies to spectroscopy, since this method is much less familiar to chemists than wave mechanical methods.
