Review
`The best general textbook on physical chemistry for our purposes, providing material at an appropriate level and coverage. ' Mike Hey, Nottingham.
`This is still a Rolls-Royce textbook, which covers the traditional core material well. ' Stephen Fletcher, Loughborough.
`"Atkins" is the gold standard of technical education in Physical Chemistry. ' Stephen Fletcher, Loughborough.
`It is important to remember that this is without doubt the principal text book for Physical Chemistry, few students will obtain a degree in the UK without having used or at least been referred to it.' Richard Wells, Aberdeen.
`The book will undoubtedly be adopted for physical chemistry teaching and deserves to be so. ' Richard Wells, Aberdeen.
`I am certain that the 8th edition will be a worthy successor to the 7th edition and remain one of the best Physical Chemistry Texts available. ' Christopher Whitehead, Manchester.
`One the most influential books on physical chemistry published in the last 30 years. ' Tom Halstead, York.
`This is a mature textbook, which I have been using since the appearance of the first edition, initially as a student, and continue to find very useful. Its scope and level of coverage are both entirely appropriate, and the author/authors have always been quick to respond to important new scientific developments.' Peter Karadaokov, University of York.
`The choice of Atkins is dictated by its universal content that covers most aspects of physical chemistry ' Mikhalovsky Sergey University of Brighton.
`Striving for completeness in presenting a subject to the student, the authors have produced an outstanding introduction to quantum theory for the serious student. This alone makes 'Physical Chemistry' a worthy acquisition. ' Tony Morton Blake, Trinity College Dublin. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
