Quantum chemistry requires ever higher computational performance, with more and more sophisticated and dedicated Python scripts being required to solve challenging problems. Although resources for basic use of Python are widely (and often freely) available online and in literature, truly cohesive materials for advanced Python programming skills are lacking.
Qiming Sun, a developer of the popular Python package PySCF, provides a comprehensive, end-to-end practical resource for researchers and engineers who have basic Python programming experiences chiefly in computational chemistry but want to take their use of the software forwards to the next level, the book provides an insightful exploration of Numpy, Pandas, and other data analysis tools. Readers will learn how to manage their Python computational projects in a professional way, with various tools and protocols for computational chemistry research and general scientific computing tasks exhibited and analysed from a technical perspective. Multiple programming paradigms including object-oriented, functional, meta-programming, dynamic, concurrent, and vector-oriented are illustrated in various technology scenarios allowing readers to properly use them to enhance their program projects. Readers will also learn how to use the presented optimization technologies to speed up their Python applications, even to the level as fast as a native C++ implementation. The applications of these technologies are then demonstrated using quantum chemistry Python applications.
Python for Quantum Chemistry: A Full Stack Programming Guide is written primarily for graduate students, researchers and software engineers working primarily in the fields of theoretical chemistry, computational chemistry, condensed matter physics, material modelling, molecular simulations, and quantum computing.
- End-to end guide for advanced Python programming skills and tools related to quantum chemistry research
- Tackles the following questions: How can you ensure the Python runtime is manageable when the preliminary implementation becomes complicated or evolves many branches? How do I ensure that others' Python program works properly in my project? How do I make my Python project reusable for others?
- Covers in depth the crucial topic of Python code optimization methods with high-performance computing technologies
- Provides examples of Python applications with cutting-edge technologies such as automatic code generation, cloud computing, and GPGPU
- Includes discussion of Python runtime mechanism and advanced Python technologies

About the Author
Around 2014, he began promoting the use of Python in quantum chemistry research and led the development of the widely used Python quantum chemistry package PySCF, which is now utilised by thousands of universities and companies in quantum chemistry, quantum computing, and AI-chemistry research. He remains actively involved in researching and developing new algorithms in the field of quantum chemistry.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Russell Books, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, +1 250-361-4447, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
Shipping terms
