REVIEWS IN COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY is a book series that brings
together renowned experts to give accounts of research in the many
facets of computer-aided chemistry, such as molecular modeling,
computer-assisted molecular design (CAMD), quantum chemistry,
molecular mechanics and dynamics, and quantitative structure-activity
relationships (QSAR).  Many chapters in the series are written as
tutorials for beginners.  The authors provide necessary background and
theory, strategies for implementing the methods, pitfalls to avoid,
applications, and references.  The topics are covered in a thorough,
timely fashion to be of interest to both practitioner and student.
Included in each volume is a continually updated, comprehensive
compendium of software.  Listed are hundreds of programs, services,
suppliers, and other helpful information.  Quite often, the answers to
questions posted on the OSC bulletin board can be found in these
compendia. 

The chapters in Volume 3 of REVIEWS IN COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY are:
"Optimization Methods in Computational Chemistry" by Tamar Schlick
(New York University), "Predicting Three-Dimensional Structures of
Oligopeptides" by Harold A. Scheraga (Cornell University), "Molecular
Modeling Using NMR Data" by Andrew E. Torda and Wilfred F. van
Gunsteren (ETH-Zentrum, Zurich), and "Computer-Assisted Methods in the
Evaluation of Chemical Toxicity" by David F. V. Lewis (University of
Surrey).  Co-editors of the series are K. B. Lipkowitz (IUPUI) and
Donald B. Boyd (Lilly Research Laboratories, Indianapolis).
