Molecular Mechanics Across Chemistry

The remarkable breadth of modern molecular mechanics is covered in this textbook developed for an undergraduate or first-time course on molecular mechanics. The book uses a case-study approach designed to give readers exposure to the relevance and utility of molecular mechanics as well as the opportunity to study a particular problem and its solution in depth.
