Chemical applications of group theory is a well-established textbook that explains the principles of molecular and crystallographic Symmetry and their immense significance. It aims to teach the use of Symmetry arguments to the typical experimental chemist in a meaningful and useful manner and serves as the first introduction for students intending to pursue theoretical work in the field. It retains the easy-to-read format and informal flavour of the previous editions and includes new material on the symmetric properties of extended arrays (crystals), projection operators, LCAO molecular orbitals, and electron counting rules.
