Reihe: Challenges and Advances in Computational Chemistry and Physics

This volume is an interdisciplinary treatise on the theoretical approach to solvation problems. It describes the essential details of the theoretical methods and places them into the context of modern applications, and hence is of broad interest to theoreticians and experimentalists. The assembly of these modern methods and applications into one volume is a unique contribution to date and gives a broad and ample description of the field in its present stage of development.
