new book for computational chemistry



 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).
