A new third edition of John R. Taylor's best-selling text that features Bayesian statistics and updated new chapter-ending problems throughout.

The need for error analysis is captured in the book's arresting cover shot - of the 1895 Paris train disaster (also available as a wall poster). The early chapters teach elementary techniques of error propagation and statistical analysis to enable students to produce successful lab reports.

In response to popular demand, University Science Books is delighted to announce the one and only authorized Student Solutions Manual for John R. Taylor's internationally best-selling textbook, Classical Mechanics. This splendid little manual, by the textbook's own author, restates the odd-numbered problems from the book and the provides crystal-clear, detailed solutions. Of course, the author strongly recommends that students avoid sneaking a peek at these solutions until after attempting to solve the problems on their own! But for those who put in the effort, this manual will be an invaluable study aid to help students who take a wrong turn, who can't go any further on their own, or who simply wish to check their work. Now available in print and ebook formats.

Introduction to Quantum Mechanics covers quantum mechanics from a time-dependent perspective in a unified way from beginning to end. Intended for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses this text will change the way people think about and teach quantum mechanics in chemistry and physics departments.

Organized and edited by Ivano Bertini, Harry Gray, Ed Stiefel, and Joan Valentine, with contributions from many other world leaders in the field, this all-new book is equally appropriate for graduate or senior undergraduate courses in bioinorganic chemistry.

College Physics: Putting It All Togetheris an algebra-based physics text designed for the first year, non-calculuscollege course.

This vibrant book takes the reader on an exciting journey through much of physical sciences by explaining the wide ranging influence of a single equation, the Boltzmann factor.

Foundations of Inorganic Chemistry by Gary Wulfsberg is our newest entry into the field of Inorganic Chemistry textbooks, designed uniquely for a one-semester stand alone course, or to be used in the first semester of a full year inorganic sequence.

With nearly 400 original illustrations, this NMR primer provides an introduction to solution NMR spectroscopy at a level appropriate for advanced undergraduates, graduate students and working scientists with backgrounds in chemistry or biochemistry.

Statistical Mechanics is the extended version of McQuarrie's earlier text - Statistical Thermodynamics [USB 1984]. Statistical Mechanics [previously published by Longman Education] is a renowned accessible introduction to the subject.

AGeneral Relativity Workbook is atextbook intended to support a one-semester upper division undergraduatecourse on general relativity.

This book lays out the foundations of quantum mechanics through the physics of intrinsic spin, and is written to serve as the primary textbook for an upper-division course in quantum mechanics.

Presented in two volumes, The Physics of Astrophysics is ideally suited for a year-long astrophysics course for university seniors and first-year graduate students.

This book provides a unified treatment of seismological methods that will be of use to advanced students, seismologists, and scientists and engineers working in all areas of seismology.

About the book An introduction to quantum mechanics and its applications with a truly innovative approach. From single-photon interference to the application of quantum mechanics to nuclear physics, Townsend's book provides a coherent picture of how the world works and how quantum mechanics can help to explain it.

This Fourth Edition of McQuarrie's classic text offers a thorough revision and a quantum-leap forward from the previous edition. Taking an atoms first approach, it promises to be another ground-breaking text in the tradition of McQuarrie's many previous works. This outstanding new text, available in a soft cover edition, offers professors a fresh choice and outstanding value.

This text provides students with concise reviews of mathematical topics that are used throughout physical chemistry. By reading these reviews before the mathematics is applied to physical chemical problems, a student will be able to spend less time worrying about the math and more time learning the physical chemistry.

Starting with just a few basic principles of probabilityand the distribution of energy, this book takes students (and faculty!) on anadventure into the inner workings of the molecular world like no other.

The biggest change in the years since the first edition is the proliferation of computational chemistry programs that calculate molecular properties. McQuarrie presents step-by-step SCF calculations of a helium atom and a hydrogen molecule, in addition to including the Hartree-Fock method and post-Hartree-Fock methods.

Designed for use in inorganic, physical, and quantum chemistry courses, this textbook includes numerous questions and problems at the end of each chapter and an Appendix with answers to most of the problems.

Evolved from McQuarrie and Simon's best-selling Physical Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, this text follows a similar path by first covering the principles of quantum mechanics before engaging those ideas in the subsequent development of thermodynamics.

This title is written for organic chemists and offers an easy entry into the field of organotransition metal chemistry without requiring a background in inorganic chemistry.

This introductory laboratorymanual will help students design a sampling plan, understand theinstrumental and analytical techniques used for the assessment ofwater quality, learn how to interpret data and use statisticalanalyses, and apply scientific reasoning to an environmentalproblem.

Based on Collman et al.'s best-selling classic book, Principles and Applications of Organotransition Metal Chemistry, Hartwig's text consists of new or thoroughly updated and restructured chapters and provides an in-depth view into mechanism, reaction scope, and applications.

Thoroughly revised and expanded throughout, the new edition is a graduate-level text and reference book on gaseous nebulae, nova and supernova remnants. Much of the new data and new images are from the Hubble Space Telescope with two wholly new chapters being added along with other new features.

Comprised of more than 2000 problems and 700 worked examples that detail every single step, this text is exceptionally well adapted for self study as well as for course use.

"Lasers is a remarkably well written book that should become the standard introductory text on laser physics." Optical & Quantum Electronic NewsLasers is both a text and general reference book with an emphasis on basic laser principles and theory.

This modern textbook makes explicit the many connections between physical organic chemistry and critical fields such as organometallic chemistry, materials chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, and biochemistry.

The manual includes not only answers for each of the end-of-chapter problems, but also descriptive solutions that show how the answers are obtained. Selected problems also have "Going Deeper" highlights that explore interesting and important issues that go beyond the solution and answer to the problem that was asked.

A complete revision of Turro's classic text, Modern Molecular Photochemistry, which has been the standard of the field for three decades. It presents a clear introduction to organic chemistry and goes on to cover the mechanisms of organic photoreactions and the photochemistry of the basic functional groups of organic chemistry.
