Principles of Nuclear Chemistry - (Essential Textbooks in Chemistry) by Peter A C McPherson (Paperback)

This comprehensive textbook provides an in-depth introduction to nuclear chemistry, covering key aspects of modern nuclear chemistry and including worked solutions to end-of-chapter questions.

With a focus on undergraduates with little or no knowledge of physics, the book begins by introducing basic theories in contemporary physics and using these to introduce fundamental mathematical techniques.

The text then relates nuclear phenomena to key divisions of chemistry such as atomic structure, spectroscopy, equilibria, and kinetics.

Additionally, it provides an introduction to f-block chemistry and the nuclear power industry.

This book is essential reading for anyone taking a first course in nuclear chemistry or working in the field.
