Reviews

This two-volume set contains contributions from many distinguished computational chemists and will catch the attention of computational chemists, computational biologists, and biophysicists (both experimental and theoretical) Even though some areas have already been extensively reviewed in recent papers, as a theoretician with an interest in nucleic acid chemistry, I still found information that I did not know before. Both volumes are typical examples. To summarize, this is an interesting book, with interesting chapters in both volumes. -- Prof. Modesto Orozco, Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB) Barcelona (Spain) ChemMedChem, 2013, 8, 1012 - 1015
