Introduction to the Theory of Benzenoid Hydrocarbons [E-Book] / by Ivan Gutman, Sven Josef Cyvin.
In the last hundred years benzenoid hydrocarbons have constantly attracted the attention of both experimental and theoretical chemists. In spite of the fact that some of the basic concepts of the theory of benzenoid hydrocarbons have their origins in the 19th and early 20th century, research in this...
