Modeling molecular structures is a useful tool for the description, classification and understanding of molecules - species, which have already been synthesized, and others existing only in the imagination of the chemist. The first part of the four-volume series 'Aspects of Organic Chemistry' focuses on molecular structure, especially that of nucleid acids and proteins. The authors, a team of internationally recognized specialists, present a modern interdisciplinary concept between chemistry - and biology - an approach, which proved to be useful in university education. A unique book, important for both lecturers and students.


Subjects of the three remaining volumes are 'Reactivity', 'Synthesis' and 'Methods of Structure Elucidation'.
