About this title

Synopsis

The increasing use of mathematics in the elucidation and solution of chemical problems raises the question of whether chemistry is becoming an area of applied mathematics, or whether chemistry still retains its distinctive character and chemical intuition is of relevance. This book discusses chemistry and its concepts, and examines such issues as how chemical concepts are defined, and whether chemical concepts are sharp and well-defined. Possible ways of rendering some of the concepts more rigorous are also explored.
