Stephen Wilson

Stephen Wilson has published over 300 scientific papers and reviews, principally in theoretical and computational chemistry and molecular physics, but also in computing science and numerical analysis. He was educated at the University of Bristol (B.Sc. in chemistry 1971, Ph.D. in theoretical chemistry 1975). He has written three books "Electron correlation in molecules" (Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1984), reprinted by Dover Publications in 2007, "Chemistry by Computer: An overview of the applications of computers in chemistry" (Plenum Press, 1986), and "Brillouin-Wigner Methods for Many-Body Systems", with Ivan Hubac (Springer, 2010). Dr. Wilson has edited some 25 volumes. He is Editor-in-Chief of the major reference work "Handbook of Molecular Physics and Quantum Chemistry" (Wiley, 2003) and an Executive Editor of the book series "Progress in Theoretical Chemistry and Physics" (Springer). He also edited the series "Methods in Computational Chemistry" (Plenum Press). Dr. Wilson holds a D.Sc. from the University of Bristol.
