Life of a Scientist [E-Book] : An Autobiographical Account of the Development of Molecular Orbital Theory / by Robert S. Mulliken ; edited by Bernard J. Ransil.
Robert S. Mulliken, Nobel Laureate in chemistry, always had the intention to write a book about his field of research: molecular orbital theory. This is his scientific autobiography, edited posthumously by his former student Bernard J. Ransil and complemented with a memoir by Friedrich Hund, his sci...
